At this point Popper admits to a change in his original attitude concerning demarcation, which was introduced to distinguish between science and pseudo-science, and according to which only refutable scientific theories could be claimants to truth. He writes:

I no longer think, as I once did, that there is a difference between science and metaphysics regarding this most important point. I look upon a metaphysical theory as similar to a scientific one … as long as a metaphysical theory can be rationally criticized, I should be inclined to take seriously its implicit claim to be considered tentatively as true. (1982a, p. 199)
