scientific gasblowing 

Offering unscientific interpretations based upon insufficient data, faulty logic or poor reasoning. The term came from a humorous Freudian slip when reading a Digg.com article entitled "Scientific Glassblowing."

That science pundit was spouting off some nonsense about super-string theory, but it was clear he had no idea what he was talking about; it was nothing more than scientific gasblowing...

Scientific Principle 

Scientific principles are general rules that are followed while doing science or rules that nature tends to follow.

Scientific Principle Examples
The Principle of Least Time a.k.a. Fermat's Principle which states that "light travels between two given points along the path of shortest time."

The principle of cause and effect which states that in order for something to happen there must be an underlying cause or is contingent.

Archimedes Principle: the buoyant force on an object is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by that object

Examples where principles guide peoples actions would be: making sure all your hypotheses are testable and falsifiable (as opposed to unfalsifiable claims, see Russell's Teapot)

scientific consensus 

Translation from scientist to normal person speak: We honestly have no fucking idea.

Sometimes, even scientists don't know what's going on. At times like that they tend to act like everyone else, which is that they assume the most popular idea must be correct. Unfortunately, this is sophistry, not science.

Dr John Snow, I am tired of your incessant prattling about Cholera being a water-born disease! There is a scientific consensus that it is spread by a miasma and that is final!
