Science is not faith. It is not something to “believe” or not “believe”. If you choose to assert that proven rules of science do not apply to the universe, that is your prerogative, but it does not change the fact that they are proven rules. Of course one cannot observe everything in the world, but that does not mean that it is impossible to draw conclusions about anything. For instance, what if you observe your toddler poking your baby and your baby crying? And what if this happens on a regular basis, and you tell your toddler to stop poking the baby because he/she clearly doesn’t like it? If your toddler were to say to you, “But Ima, you didn’t see it every time, sometimes the baby doesn’t mind,” how would you respond? Would you believe that there are times that the baby doesn’t mind being poked? And even if there are, would that mean that the general rule that the baby doesn’t like being poked is no longer true?
