Quote: No, your idea about science is a philiosophy of science. Sure, it's got a lot of believers, but historically it is not the only vision of science people have believed in.\nThere is metaphysical evidence. The Apostles saw Jesus walk on water. There was no 'measure' by your version of science, but what they saw remains true.
Response: People have entertained and will always continue to entertain beliefs in all \nmanner of propositions. Many people once believed that the earth is flat:\nperhaps some still do. But this has nothing to do with scientific truth.\nThere is no "version" of science that one chooses from a menu of possibilities.\nBy definition, scientific enquiry arrives at hypotheses after gathering evidence from observations and experiment. Any law, knowledge, etc. that\nis arrived at by scientific method is open to modification or falsification if new evidence comes to light that must be taken into account. All science in this \nsense is provisional.\nThe apostles may have believed that Jesus walked on water: that does NOT\nmake it true.
