Anything that can exert an influence, however small, on the Universe falls squarely within the purview of scientific investigation, whether or not we have sufficient means to do so right now. "To the rational mind, nothing is inexplicable; only unexplained." Unless and until you can present something of any substance to support the concept of non-secular science, we'd do better to remove all that poison from the well and simply refer to "science".

Plural question marks don't increase the authority of your query; they are not cumulative. The glib answer to your question is: you're sitting in the thing that works, it's popularly referred to as the Universe. On the other hand, if I were to take one example it would be the discovery of the CMB (a prediction of BBT) leading to the development of microwave astronomy. It's the technological equivalent of speciation; a new field of astronomy where there wasn't one before, purely as a result of Big Bang cosmology.
Interesting though this digression has been, it's clearly a creative way of avoiding the issue. Where's my miracle?
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
