In the world we live in, new experiences are constantly being studied, which previous knowledge may not explain in our quest of absolute knowledge. From prior knowledge of a similar experience, we try to understand the new experience, but our prior knowledge may not explain the experience and is therefore discarded for new discoveries. In the natural sciences, many theories and models created to explain experiences become redundant. These theories and models are not capable of explaining new experiences and therefore must be supplanted by new discoveries, capable of explaining experience. This may be because the knower is not able to formulate a theory or model due to an experience that has not yet been observed. In the humanities, experiments have a great influence on the available knowledge because they are largely based on trends from various sources. If the trend changes in the future, the knowledge becomes false and must be repudiated. I believe that old knowledge is often replaced by new discoveries. However, it does not always directly replace old knowledge and may use it as a stepping stone, or simply replace old knowledge.Argument 1: The use of inductive reasoning in the natural sciences means that, through the scientific method, a general case can be defined from a specific case. This often leads to knowledge being discarded because it does not fully describe the general case. In physics, learning about astrophysics and models of the universe, we discovered Newton's model of the universe and Olber's paradox. I found it particularly interesting how knowledge was being changed, and what was believed to be true was in the middle of the article....... Our knowledge does not allow us to predict the future (although Halley was able to predict the coming of the next passage of the comet). This means that we do not know whether the phenomenon being modeled will be relevant in the future or whether it is only applicable to current experiences (the Malthusian model). In the natural sciences, we can only assume that the knowledge we have found is a true generalization for past experiences and true for future experiences until proven otherwise, after which it is supplanted by a new theory. In the humanities, it is possible to obtain knowledge from truths from various sources to predict a reason for an event, but this is only applicable until the sources prove false or the experiment has been altered, from which a new model must be obtained for the new experiment and the old model discarded.
