Again you guys don't seem to understand that 'empirical evidence' can be manuplited to say anything the man funding the 'science' wants it to say.
In the 1940s 9 doctors out of 10 said smoking is healthy.
In the 1930s German Scientists discovered that the Aryans were pinicale of human evolution/The master race.
In the 1960s dumping toxic waste in the ocean was said to have no negitive effect.
In the 1970s Their was going to be a minnie Ice age by 2000 (global cooling)
In the 1980 Their was a hole in the Ozone that would never close (till we taxed comsumers enough and it did)
Then in the late 1990s Global warming started.
Then by 2010 the phrase was changed to global climate change so whether it gets warmer or colder "science" and continue to claim the sky is falling and tax consumers till we have nothing left to tax.
Your god "science" is a whore that follows who or whatever has the most money, and will say anything for 'more funding.'
So if be 'better method of knowledge' you mean a conduit for propaganda and social control, then yes I agree.
Ohh!! So when they say theists don't believe in global warming what they actually mean is that theist don't believe in funding to eradicate global warming!
On a side note, I do agree with you that science can and has been used to manipulate evidence or misrepresent evidence for personal gains or other immoral uses. But what you have to realize is that not all fields and studies related to science is not all lies.
