i think all about science is all about facts and evidence. but whenever scientists trying to forcing their theory by insert some assumptions and speculations, that is NOT a science anymore.
and whenever scientists try to making a theory with some conviction math and have a relation to another theory, but if they can't explain it how the mechanism of their theory happens in practical, that is NOT a science anymore. especially if it can't be accepted by our logics.
so if those two things that i describe above happened in this present, then what is the differences between belief (in this case religion) and science?
i think that's the basic of the difference principle.
