The only "scientific method" some people will ever accept, is an assembly of scriptures from orally passed on stories with a time line based on Hebrew lineage. This lineage, composed of men who were reputed to have lived several hundreds of years, is all some people will accept for a documented human time period, never mind our telemeres, chromosomes and DNA evidence to the contrary. All else is believed to be foolishness, and no amount of evidence will ever persuade them otherwise.

Only someone who has never read the first few chapters of Genesis could hold such a position.
There is a timeline of creation which follows the sequence narrative of macroevolution (phylogenetic tree) pretty closely, and then there is an allegorical story about how mankind obtained morality.
Of course it was probably not a wise choice by the writer(s) of Genesis to juxtapose the two tangentially related stories, but the differences are plain to read and have been explained and understood sufficiently for millenia.
It’s obvious that Genesis does not begin to describe mankind until after agriculture is invented. It even details that metallurgy came after agriculture, not before, which is scientifically accepted.
But if you (or anyone, for that matter) are looking for a book strictly about science, the Bible (or the Torah, or the Tanakh) should not be your solitary source.
