|Preamble=It is currently accepted in scientonomy that epistemic agents can take three unique and independent stances towards theories, viz., ''acceptance'', ''use'', and ''pursuit''. However, the history of science shows that an independent stance of ''scientificity'' (i.e., whether a theory is considered scientific or unscientific) has been taken by epistemic agents towards theories. Historical examples show cases where the The stance of scientificity (or unscientificity) took place without can be taken independently of other stances, which is confirmed by numerous cases from the occurrence history of acceptance (unacceptance)science, where a theory is considered scientific without being accepted, use (unuse)used, and pursuit (neglect/unpursuit)or pursued. Thus, thereby establishing we suggest that scientificity's independence as is a unique epistemic stance taken by epistemic agents towards theories.
