Trust the Science

I guess I could say I believe in the Science
with certain caveats to clarify my alliance
why the caution in this particular refrain?
let me say that Science is superb in its domain

but Science is flawed when it comes to History
one time events are a Scientific mystery

and while Science does have a certain rhythm
Poetry and Science theory will lead to a schism

I'm not saying Science doesn't have a place in Art
but paint strokes are lacking unless caused by the heart

yes, Science really starts to push its boundary
when focussed on solving a Sociological quandary 

and don't get me started on Science and Theology
where matters of uncertainty make it hard to reason properly

Still. With those caveats down. Maybe a couple more as well.
Let me state that Science, in it's place, is truly without parallel.
Science has managed to send actual people to space.
Science has cured diseases which plagued the human race.
Science allows us to build structures which reach up to the sky.
Science allows us to know which chemicals harm us and why.

Science is discussion. Science is in fact debated.
It's just discussion which is heavily moderated.
It's not that science is uncaring or that science doesn't care.
Science is just a tool to help us understand things that are there.

It's up to humans use the knowledge that Science can provide us.
To ensure the procurement of said knowledge wasn't subject to our bias. 
Yes, the process of Science is messy. But I know, and you must
That in the right domain, Science is really the best thing you can trust.
