In all seriousness I cant do a fraction to save my life. But I do have a basic understanding of what "scientific method" means. Theists and science deniers stupidly think it is a concept that is deep. The details of the fields certainly do get deep, but the idea is simple. Look pay attention, record, compare, and have somebody with no horse in the race check your work. It is simply following steps, no different than when you buy a bike or appliance and the instructions walk you through to get to the end assembled product.

It really isn't that different than most people accept that their vehicle runs on the idea of a combustion engine even though most people could not design or build one from scratch. There is no Allah crank shaft, no Vishnu piston, no Jesus alternator, no Apollo transmission. There is simply the vehicle.

I am no expert in scientific fields. I simply value it because I use it every day and accept that even outside a lab, there is no way outside of being dead, that humans can get around doing anything that does not involve science. They partake in it every single second of their lives.

I agree, Isaac Asimov said it best when he was comparing modern technology to the Bible. In summary, he said "We both might have a basic understanding of how a combustible engine works, but we may not agree on the details. But, just because we don't agree on the details does not mean that the engine does not work, or that there is an invisible horse pulling the car."
