Zachary White19 said:The issue isn't science itself, it's just that your expectations are contradicting themselves. Every time science hands you a rule explaining why something happens, you immediately go looking for a different rule to explain that first one. It just becomes this endless loop because you're always hunting for a new rule to justify all the old ones. If I were God and I told you, "It's just because I want it that way," you'd probably ask, "Well, why do you want it that way?" and then God would just send you packing... and you'd still be there pestering Him with questions.
Of course it's natural for a person to wonder—provided they have the components for a constructive question—but even if they don't, it's human nature... the real issue is how long today's scientific convictions will actually hold up against the test of time (say, the next 100 years or so). We might find ourselves looking back at modern science a century from now with the same smirk we reserve for early alchemists and their shaky foundations. I get the impression people today think scientists are just a few discoveries away from cracking the code of the universe, but frankly, I don't think we realize how little we actually know... because, as you pointed out: every answer simply births a new question.
