The scientific method has an extraordinary track record of success when it comes to investigating what is otherwise hidden from our senses - from subatomic particles to distant galaxies....

when the evidence goes against what they believe, science's ability to adjudicate is then denied. Such denials are often delivered with an air of humility and superior wisdom: 'There are more things in Heaven and Earth than are dreamed of in your philosophy'. No doubt there are, but that's not to say we can't show there's at least one thing less than is dreamed of in theirs
