But let's continue with the demarcation exercise ...
To what extent is the study of human origins science (in your view)? As in the evolution of the species Homo sapiens?

You are a master of semantics Nereid. I fell into one of your traps. That is a mistake I shall endeavor to not make again.
The burden of proof is yours because you take utility from society for your research. Go economics.
The issue is the big bang theory and whether people should walk around with the idea in their head that the universe started as it describes. How does an interested party test to see if the theory is wrong? It can't possibly be by a semantic web starting with biology.
