It doesn't mean that science can't have application, science to me is the explanation for things, the knowledge and the application of that knowledge. Science can always be applicable in the real world and it is, it doesn't have to be purely theoretical for it to be science.
My #15 was misunderstood. The tone of the post was me trying to have Baklava clarify his statement by use of an example (although it appears it wasn't a good one).
As for what science and education are, I feel that both are broad terms that are highly open to interpretation. You can attempt interpret it liberally, scientifically, colloquially, and any other shade that might exist. I mean to me it's like piddling over semantics.
