Science that “steps out of the straight jacket” of dependence upon physical causes to explain physical phenomena needed to be in a padded cell and IN the straight jacket, as such is the domain of kooks and quacks and charlatans who have accomplished NOTHING of any value.

Somehow allmendream, I figured your reply would go just exactly according to the above "text."

You're making my point for me.

No, I am making my own point for myself.

Can you point out any “science” that doesn't depend upon physical causes to explain physical phenomena that has actually accomplished anything?

Claims of supernatural causation for physical phenomena is the realm of charlatans and quacks and has accomplished nothing.

Creationists keep saying that ‘if only science wouldn't limit itself vast vistas of discovery and enlightenment would happen’ but they cannot even come up with a single example whereby anything of value was accomplished by thinking that physical phenomena have supernatural causation.

To me it is like Communists insisting that despite their economic system being a total failure every time, NEXT time vast vista's of economic activity will open up everyone will be happy and everything will be free.
