>Your comments show that you believe that the scientific method can and
will identify and deal with all possibilities.


Allen, I'm sorry that anything I've said has misled you to think that I have
the above belief!

The scientific method by definition is not about identifying all
possibilities--it is simply a method for rigorously testing hypotheses.  For
example, that the presence of a certain chemical at a certain concentration,
under certain conditions will cause a reduction in brood rearing.  No
scientific paper will ever suggest that it covers all possibilities.
