"Thats science. You look for evidence, formulate a theory, and test it against the evidence. Latter scientists add confirmatory evidence, or refute it with contradictory evidence and a new theory. Starting with a religious text is called "religion" and not science."

What you refuse to recognize is that 'science' is based on the assumption of philosophical naturalism; that is the assumption that the natural world is all that exists. Given that 'a priori' assumption you cannot return any answer other than a 'natural' one. Unfortunately, assuming philosophical naturalism is a philosophical choice, not an empirical one.

"Something you cretins don't seem to get."

Take a look in the mirror on that one.
