And if possible, please elaborate on epistemology. I'm having trouble getting it.
Can we say that science is a material or empirical philosophy that reduces metaphysics to epistemology?

or that reduces, or, if you prefer another verb, " translates" the Q's in metaphysics into the Q's of epistemology? This Q was triggered by the one and only A to a Q I asked about the concept of energy which is still open for A's(Answers). I wish more people would venture a reasoned opinion based on the knowledge they have of science and philosophy. Contrary to those who think opinions can't compete with the facts, it is opinions that tie the facts together and is the first step to a theory(which is not a synonym for opinion).
