Summary/Abstract: A strong criticism of the philosophy of science, Logic positivism and conventionalism came from Karl Popper’s critical rationalism. Popper believed that a number of various scientific and random verifications determine the acceptance degree for scientific laws and theories. The degree of actuality of scientific laws and theories is expressed through “comparative probability.” Popper also believed that science evolves through the course of history, thus stating there is no revolution either in the history of science or in the very sciences. The supreme scientific and methodological rule, the rule above all scientific and methodological rules, says that no scientific and methodological rule protects scientific laws or scientific hypothesis from the rule of scientific verifications and amendments.
