Technically speaking science consists of the process of producing testifiable testimony – though explaining that requires a bit of effort. The reason the west developed philosophy and empiricism and science in sequence is almost entirely due to the european political order of individual sovereignty (of at least the warriors), the prohibition on arbitrary authority because of it, the requirement for adversarial debate before ‘juries’ because of that, and the requirement for testimony in those debates.
