I think we can state with a fair amount of certainty that science will never be able to tell us what caused the Big Bang, or why the Laws governing the Universe are as they are, and not something else... For the precise reason that those questions require answers that go beyond space and time in their scope.

I admit that's very unlikely (at least from our present point of view) and that's why I withhold any speculation concerning this issue. If there is no way to obtain any empirical evidence that backs up such speculations I don't see their merit. Therefore one speculation is as good as any other to avoid admitting that one simply does not know. (Of course there are people who admit that those are only speculations but there are others who claim they are the Truth because they "just know" it to be so)

There's more to life than science. How would you prove "love," scientifically?

Yet, there's something to be said for it.

Therefore one speculation is as good as any other to avoid admitting that one simply does not know.

Is all knowledge scientific?

Should a truth be ignored, simply because it might elude the grasp of science?
