To date, anything that scientists have come to understand does not support any of the mystical and supernatural explanations that were made up by "intuitional science." Hundreds of years. Potentially tens of thousands of discoveries. All of them having natural explanations, none of them attributed to woo.
But you keep on trusting that intuitional science, buddy!
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
