Except it’s COMPLETELY relevant, because ALL of the evidence you’re talking about is what humanity has gathered throughout our tiny blip of existence. It doesn’t matter what we should have done, if your whole point is “don’t fill the gaps with stuff we don’t know,” using scientists etc. as an example, when, historically, we’ve done nothing BUT “fill the gaps,” and incorrectly at that.
Like yes, there’s evidence to support the theories, but that does not change the HISTORICAL FACT that our theories are CONSTANTLY CHANGING based on new evidence that we now have to “slot in” and make work with the current evidence… Until we find more evidence and start all over. We’re just… way too overconfident with our “facts” when we literally don’t know shit. Trying to pretend we understand, like a monkey thinking a microwave is a flashlight
I still feel like you have a fundamental misunderstanding of science, and that you’re trying to conflate the gap-filling that religious people do with the evidence gathering that science does. Which is a wholly disingenuous thing to do.
Mate, religious people didn’t fill the museums with dinosaurs without feathers. Scientists gather evidence… then fill the gaps. Flat earth, earth is the center, quantum theory, quasi-crystals, the list goes on and on, if anything is disingenuous it’s saying that scientists DON’T fill the gaps for the things we don’t know. THAT’S ALL WE’VE EVER DONE. Religious or not, no evidence, some evidence, or “a lot” relative to our tiny corner of space, humanity, historically, fills the gaps so we can pretend to understand things we’ve only just recently become capable of even observing
