In my view, the objective framework is for scientists to approach their investigations more like the mathematicians and declare the axioms/postulates applicable to the investigation at hand, upfront and clearly.

If it's not relevant, it's not on the table in the first place. That gets the bias out whether theistic or atheistic.

How do you approach a debate if a theory holds it to be axiomatic that a cause can be arbitrary and undetectable empirically?
