It is, because you can verify the claims of a holy man if you go meditate in a cave for a couple of decades. Since no one is willing to do that, people used to accept their word fo…

>The fact that things seem to work does not mean that they actually do work. Well, the same can be applied to your "western science" as well..

>Except when we test them, they don’t seem to work after all. Have you heard about the replication crisis in your "western science"?

They can, but that wouldn't be too interesting to anyone in this universe. Or that it how I read it. Just like a being in a game wondering what caused the game company/programmer t…

> it says contradicts science? contradicting science is no great flaw. "Science" contradicts itself from time to time.
