"No, the reasons for choosing empiricism are utilitarian. Science delivers the goods. Science can transmute lead into gold, and it can tell you why this isn't going to produce wealth. Science can produce the Internet, which allows geocentrists to expose their private delusions to the world."

Sorry bud. You aren't choosing empiricism. You are assuming naturalism and confusing 'after the fact' story-telling with technology.

You do prove my point about being unable to admit that your beliefs are based on the philosophy of naturalism, however.

Feel free to list any modern techology not based on scientific theories -- or stories, if you prefer the term.
