The scientific approach differed widely from the approach medieval scholars took. During medieval times many scholars would base their predictions on the religion of the time and assumptions based on theories that were not always tested in the proper way. With the scientific method becoming the normal procedure, facts are placed much higher than theory or belief. This means that theories are tested in many different ways and that without absolute evidence most things are not accepted.
