The person who takes this position sets himself up for serious error, particularly concerning issues relating to God's existence and what, if any, responsibilities he has to God. The scientific method is simply a process which earlier scientists developed in an effort to quantify the order that they observed in the universe. Thus, the scientific method is limited to providing us with information in the form of descriptions and measurements. It does not tell us the underlying reasons for anything. For instance, electrical charge is one of the fundamental properties of matter.
Electrical charge provides the primary basis for chemical reactions.
If electrical charge did not exist, we would not have atoms, molecules, or life. A scientist can develop models which describe the behavior of electrical charge under many different conditions. He can use these models to predict very accurately many events he sees taking place in the world around him. This approach is the basis for modern technology. He is absolutely helpless to explain WHY the universe is a universe with electrical charge instead of one without it.
