That depends:

To say that certain random occurrences fixed by contingencies profoundly influence life is observation (i.e. fact)

To postulate then investigate that these occurrences might explain more than is now observed is science.

To insist that these occurrences explain more than observed but further questioning of it is unnecessary since it would merely confirm what is believed is anti-science.

To insist that these occurrences explain more than observed and dismiss evidence that they don't is delusion.
