Following a cult and discarding hindu rituals and hinduism as mythology doesn't make one a person of science.
Yes, Radha saomi and arya samaj are not people of science. Do they claim that? These are religious movements and not scientific. They talk about spirituality and philosophy. Science is not that.
Science is about evidences, rigorous data collection and mathematical logical deduction. That’s the definition of science. Science has a method and approach and religious rituals don’t fall under it. People blindly following religious rituals are certainly not called as people of science unless you change definition itself.
Are there any research articles/ studies published in journals about all these rituals being fact, the mythology being fact? Did they find evidence to support it?
Science is also changing your conclusions based on new evidence and is not rigid like taking every ritual and religion from thousand years and accept it as truth without questioning. Your comment itself is proof that you are not talking about science.
