I dont want to hurt your feelings
First of all math is a tool used by science not a product of it.
This i agree with.

not of the world, but a theory wiil explain all of what the theory is meant to encompass

I agree with you here. If you follow the scientific method and find something that doesn'y work you are still conducting science. WHen your done your experiment however, you are not done with the scientific method, you must properly, scientificaly analyse your results. If your results don't explain things to the proper 100% cut off, they must be revised or thrown out. You can still learn from the study but the results are not yet sound enough to be applied in the real world. i think psychology discontinues its usage of the scientific method at this stage and that's why it lands on messy unscientific principles. it's results are not sound enough to be classified as a science
