[jec41]

Galileo improved upon Aristotle and used mathematics to do it. To suggest that these disciplines must remain separate or non-interchangable is to introduce constraints that are unnecessary, just like suggesting theology must be compartmentalized into the realm of faith, as if faith by definition has no basis in fact; as if science can operate without shaping principles attendant to each observer.

Your opinion. Try to use any to prove the other. Laws are used as evidence in scientific theory however those laws are determined by mathematics, not science. Faith has no basis in fact. Name a fact observed by faith. Faith has long been defined by philosophy. Ones opinion will not change the definition.

Your opinion.

As is yours that there are three types of knowlege that must must remain separate.

Faith has no basis in fact.

It may be defined that way, but most faith is based upon positive statements, either in language or in physical reality. Even people who believe in the Tooth Fairy have at least received some communication implying the Tooth Fairy's existence. And if you can imagine a Tooth Fairy, shall we say what is in your imagination does not exist? It most certainly exists as a thought. Are thoughts outside the realm of science? How can they be when all of science is dependent upon thought in the first place?
