Bruno has said to me that one cannot refute a scientific finding by

an argument like Bruno's, one can certainly question the
metaphysical and other presumptions that go into his discourse.
Yes, of course. I don't think anyone is denying that - quite the
reverse, people who argue /against /Bruno often do so on the basis of
unexamined metaphysical assumptions (like primary materialism)
And the contrary, that primary materialism is false, is just as much an
unevidenced metaphysical assumption.
