sociology$)$ cannot be like theory in the natural sciences because

the subject matter in the social sciences is comparatively simple, which makes it too easy to create the kind of universal laws seen in some natural sciences.

theories in the social sciences are supposed to remain objective, while those in the natural sciences are encouraged to have a critical aspect to them.

the subject matter in the social sciences is far too complex, which makes it impossible to create the kind of universal laws seen in some natural sciences.

such sociologists are hopelessly disillusioned individuals that have lost touch with what it means for sociology to be a proper science.
