In formulating ones opinion on the separation of scientific knowledge in contrast too ones knowledge in ideology are examined and elaborated extensively among all debaters. This includes both negative and positive responses; however, I shall not warrant much further discussion as it relates to the background definition of the perspective question. Thus the terminology and the etymology are tools one must examine and re-examine, in order to differentiate the terms science and Ideology. In the late 20's and 30's the science of the atom, thought of by many nuclear physis's as just another part of an element on the periodical chart. Yes, scientist could examine it's molecular structure with-out understanding the Atom's military capacity to save live. This ideology, although accurate at the time of history became antiquated in observation and reasoning.
Thus, the thought of relativity by Albert Einstein, brought a different ideology of logic and reasoning. The atomically structure of the atom and understanding the suborbital level are in my observation helpful in fueling the confidence of our President to move forward in the creation of the Atom Bomb. This explosion could be measured qualitatively and quantitatively. Albert being a mathematician, perhaps calculate the atom's molecular orbital spacing, thereby comprehending the inertia affect of such an explosion. The further away from the nucleus each proton and electron are the greater the fusion of force.
In conclusion one can argue on the premise of ideology being one of: value, belief, moral, cultural up bringing and traditions; however, one must examine and re-examine the premise of background information and historical facts. They are instruments in helping us evaluate our choices and decisions. The method of least probability shall be the validity which enhances our forensic capability in determining what definitional meaning shall be prevalent in global community.
