Methodological Naturalism

RE: Methodological Naturalism
(November 17, 2018 at 4:02 pm)Gae Bolga Wrote: Well, methodological naturalism isn't about eliminating a possibility.  It's more an acceptance of the limitations of our instrumentation.  We simply don't possess a "godometer", for lack of a better term.  As soon as someone builds one, we could use it, i guess?

So we cannot make inferences from the data that we do have?    Are you saying that only directly measured data, and not logical induction are to be included under the category of science?  It sounds like you are going to quickly get into the problems of philosophical modernism if so.
