You're mixing up the field of science with the scientific method. While religion doesn't abide by the scientific method, it can coexist as long as that religion hasn't been explicitly disproven by scientific findings, such as Greek gods.

No, that's completely wrong. I have ample evidence for the assertion that no elephant exists within my bedroom, for example.

Maybe it [i]does[/i] exist, but you just like to pretend it isn't there.

And that should answer the question. If God falls under logical obversion, then that doesn't mean it can't coexist with science. They're both independent of each other.

I think you think I said observation, but I said obversion.
