I have never met nor even corresponded with a colleague who believes that empirical evidence has no limits (whatever that might mean). Again, the charge of scientism seems to be little more than a bogeyman to silence or shame rigorous thinkers.
When asked if science can, in principle, discover everything, I wouldn't even know how to respond. I'm not sure what such a question even means.
Scientists move forward in their research with the provisional assumption that progress can be made...what other option is there?
