Surely you can see, and appreciate, the inherent contradictions here. 2 is only something we have faith in and use to explain occurrences in the world, much like God. Only one is science and the other is not. Though that's probably because 2 simply has more consensus among humanity for existing than God does. I suppose at one point God did have enough consensus to be considered science as well, just not anymore. Maybe one day we'll evolve beyond 2 as well? We really can't take anything for granted.
