Is sociology better than anthropology?

Personally, I would prefer anthropology, but they don't really study the same thing, so no one is better than the other, they're different.

Sociology is typically held as one of the least academic and reliable of the social-sciences. Personally, I thought anthropology was far more scientific (physical, anyway).

 

Anthropology tends to have a better connotation in academic circles, but cultural anthropology can be somewhat fluffy. I think it's better than sociology, though.

It might be helpfull if you could define what you mean by better.

More scientific?

More quantitatively based?

Providing superior career opportunities?

Easier to get a degree in?

etc..

Does anthropology have more of an accurate and scientific structure that can be applied more realistically than sociology?

Anthropology deals with any of a number of branches, including homimin evolution, human biology, archaeology, and ethnology. It normally falls on hard scientifical evidence that can be observed and tested. Plus it's a friggin' Helluva lot cooler

 

Probably more easily earned money to be made in sociology though

How is it a lot "cooler"?

I'm a zoology major who really loves paleontology and evolutionary biology, so anthro is right up my alley. Finding fossils, deducing what we can about their ancient behaviors and cultures, how and why we evolved, why Homo sapiens sapiens is the only remaining hominid, etc, etc, etc.

 

I hate people, so studying the the reasons why people in general are so stupid doesn't really appeal to me

Both are inferior and horribly flawed, on account of not focusing on reptiles.
