I think you are misunderstanding me. I am not claiming that we don’t all rely on inductive reasoning all the time. I am only arguing that inductive reasoning has no valid logical basis. We use it, and assume it to be valid despite the fact that it has no logical basis.
Strictly speaking one cannot “prove” rules of the natural sciences. Almost all of us take them as fact anyway, but I think it is a worthwile endeavor to try and understand WHY you take them as fact?
