What is beyond the reach of science?

After reading some recent posts I was reminded of something my father told me. He said " Watch out for the true believers, they are always blind to something." I always thought that he was referring to the vehement theists but I am wondering if it doesnt apply in a more general sense.I am not a theist, at least not by any definition that I have seen. A couple of years ago a cousin of mine died. I had a box of old cigarette packs that were covered in notes that he had kept. Things like how much he had to drink, how much he had smoked. I was cleaning up one day and threw the box on the fire. Clear as a bell I hear his voice saying "Hey, dont do that". It freaked me out because it didnt make sense. It didnt and doesnt fit with the way I KNOW that the universe works.Is my 'faith' in the scientific method blinding me to something?
Is there anything beyond the grasp of the scientific method? Will it eventually provide the correct answer for any question?I am not sure where these questions belong and please excuse my pedestrian mind for wandering out onto the highway.Edited by Dogmafood, : Changed title/clarification

A better title would be: Can we be blinded by what we know to be true?Unfortunately I don't see a clear discussion starter.Open mind to what?
Blinded from what?If you want to discuss cognitive dissonance, then you need to rework the OP.As written, I'm not inclined to promote this topic. Needs to be clearer.Missing the mistake is not because of what you know to be true, it was because of what you assumed to be true.

Of course its muddled. Thats where the questions come from. You have to see it more as a cloud of thought rather than a train. OK. I changed the title and did some heavy editing.
