Reply To: Why do you believe in Science?

zvei,

That what we perceive as patterns has any effect on the future requires an inductive leap. How do you know that if you, looking backward, can pick out a pattern, then that pattern will continue in the future?

There are only two bases for such an assumption. Either past patterns being observed to continue into the future, itself an act of inductive logic and therefore circular, or an a priori belief (without basis) that laws of nature exist to be discovered.
