Science doesn't deal in absolutes, it deals in uncertainty and quality - testing against uncertainty beyond reasonable doubt.

From a standpoint of uncertainty and quality we can observe that the gaps are gone. Thus the theological/religious game against observable knowledge is over.

"You say revision, I say mistake."

Context? I didn't say "revision".

"Science doesn't explain everything. Neither does religion."

Religion explains nothing, now that it can't predict 'gaps'. Science is in the business to make predictions on everything that is (the universe), but obviously it doesn't claim to predict everything. That is not a bug, it is a feature - compare with how religion tried the latter.

apologies - I should have put quotes around it - or musical notes or somthing - I wasn't trying to infer that you had said that - I was using it in the singsong way of e.g. "You say tomato I say tomato".
