Why is there evil in the world?
It’s quite simple actually.
God loves us. Therefore He lets us choose our actions. Thus, we (since we are sinful-Genesis 3) choose to do evil.
So why is there evil in the world?
Because of us - not God.
Furthermore, since they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, he gave them over to a depraved mind, to do what ought not to be done. They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips, slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents; they are senseless, faithless, heartless, ruthless. Although they know God’s righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them.

Science is an interconnected series of concepts and conceptual schemes that have developed as a result of experimentation and observation, and are fruitul of further experimentation and observations.
-Science and Common Sense - By: Dr. James B. Conant (former president of Harvard)
Scientific proof is based on showing that something is a fact by repeating the event in the presence of the person questioning the fact.
-More than a Carpenter - Josh McDowell
The scientific method, however it is defined, is related to measurement of phenomena and experimentation or repeated observation.
-The New Encyclopaedia Britannica - Micropaedia Vol. VIII, pg 985
Science:
1: a branch of knowledge or study dealing with a body of facts or truths systematically arranged and showing the operation of general laws
2. systematic knowledge of the physical or material world gained through observation and experimentation.
Translation:
“True” Science is something that can be reproduced and observed.
