Given that the advice of the Scriptures is intended for Christians of all times it would apply to anything under that term of “false knowledge” I’d think.

From chicken teeth to ring species, false (gnosis)knowledge finds a home in science too.

Because there's really no way to keep false knowledge out of science, especially with the *it's the best we've got* mentality. That allows for the acceptance of a lot of false knowledge until *something better* comes along.

In light of the fact that science only deals with the physical subset of reality, it can never attain real knowledge. It'll always be stuck making the best assumptions it can with the incomplete data it collects.

Titus 3:12 When I send Artemas or Tychicus to you, do your best to come to me at Nicopolis, for I have decided to spend the winter there
How's that working out for you?
