I appreciate this, and want more! My training at BIOLA apologetics prepared me for the COVID crisis. Moderns think in apodictic certainty when it comes to ALL aspects of science. One Coulomb passing thru 1 Ohm produces 1 ampere passing thru or 1 volt across. Water boils at 100c.

Study of disease in populations is a statistical science, Epidemiology. Medicines do not work equally for all people. Not Apodictic

History of science is not and cannot be established by scientists. That is the realm of philosophers of science.

It is commonly believed that Christopher Columbus faced a council at Salamanca that believed in the flat earth. This is Common knowledge.

It is also simply, NOT TRUE.

See CS Lewis ‘the discarded image’

“See inventing the flat earth”
