Sorry I dont believe in Science :lol:
But you are afraid to jump off a building I hope?
You do catch a ball when it's thrown?
Well, welcome to the scientific law of gravity.
If you put your hand in a boiling cup of water, it will hurt. That's physics, because there is higher adhesion in boiling water with executes a pressure on human skin.

I see your point but don't agree ..
I and many others I suppose, don't go around
thanking science for everything .
Indeed the people who invented everyday things
only did so out of need ..
Computers were not invented out of need, but out of interest. A computer is not needed for survival. Check out the Pyramid of Maslow. Man's physiological (survival) needs are only food, water, temperature, ...
A computer was not a necessity at the time it was invented. The person who invented could survive without it.
Windy said:
necessity is the mother of invention' not science .
Science forms investigation. Without science, we would not know gravity.
Almost every object you have, is based upon science. If a chair is built with legs, it's because of notion of gravity, due to science. A chair can't float in the air.

A good scientist would not disclaim anything without proof .
Claiming something without proof is a mistake. You did. I do not disclaim ghosts do exist, but if you claim they do, you claim something unsupported.
This way one could claim the flying spaghetti monster or a mother godess is behind perception.

Science like religion has done some wonderful things but the
nature of man is such, that much of what could have been
good ends up bad .
Science never does bad; it's the persons who use it. Science is but knowledge and hence, the one who uses it is responsible.
Science allows us the ability to survive and saves millions of lives.
We can save severe diseases (cancer, etc.)
We will be able to expand into space to save billions of people.
We have more comfort.
etc.

Some would argue that you do see ghost's without knowing it ..
Who? That person must be kidding.
If you see without knowing it, how do you know you see it without knowing it? That's a contradiction!

I dont thank science for this computer I thank the person who invented it .
The person who invented was a mathemathician, hence a SCIENTIST. THe first computers built were calculators with an arithmetic (calculations) and logical unit (true, false). The functioning was based upon math such as algebra and the like.
Without science that person would not have the knowledge to do it.
