Ok, but remember science is in the business of predictions, and predictions are necessarily about the future or unobserved matters of fact. That is why Hume's skepticism about induction has occupied philosophers of science ever since.

Sure, but in the context of my discussion with NotReady, the point is still valid. His argument was that science is "faith"-based since we have to assume that nature is orderly and therefore our conclusions about it are meaningful.

Thanks again for the better explanation of Hume's arguments.
