This re-instated what passes for faith in humanity

Wouldn’t it in itself be miraculous if the scientific method, whose methods are limited such that it cannot [be used to] postulate, test, or determine the purpose of a device as simple as a screw-driver, could [be used to] discern purpose or design in something greater? If the beginning and end of one’s knowledge is limited to what is shown by the methods of empirical experimentation then there should be no surprise that purpose and design is necessarily excluded. A question as simple as What is the purpose of scientific experiment? falls outside of the purview of science and thus becomes unknowable to a man who would be so limited.
