No, the point of science is knowledge. I think that's pretty clear. That's why people do it and that's what we get out of it every time. Science is what we use to justify our beliefs in truths. True justified belief is knowledge, simply put.

Things working might be the point of science to some senator who helps decide the NASA budget, but that's a limited context.

Otherwise, your presence in this thread is outstanding. I removed you from my ignore list just to read your posts here. Nice work.
