Your beliefs amount to jack shit.
My beliefs?
I think you need to go back a page or two to see what I was talking about. LadyForCamus asked how someone would determine what questions science can't answer. I wasn't asserting a belief-- except maybe that there's no evidence that science is the right tool for answering certain kinds of questions.
It's much like the agnostic atheist position: "I don't need to prove there aren't any gods. You've shown no evidence that there are, but if you can, I reserve the right to change my mind."
I will say the exact same thing: "I don't need to prove that science can't answer certain types of questions. You've shown no evidence that it can, but if you can, I reserve the right to change my mind." So go ahead-- break through the Universe, show how the Cosmic Foam creates Universes like ours-- and I will happily change my mind. Until then-- meh.
