In my scenario, if it were a case of us missing something, then I am positing that to assume so would be to contradict a basic tenet (that's better, eh?) of science. While you may be right in saying this is a thought experiment, my point is merely to demonstrate that is is possible for science to come to a supernatural conclusion.

No, it isn't.

In that scenario, a guy would go "Okay guys! We have missed something. We better change the field theory!"

Scientists will never come to the conclusion that something supernatural is going on. If there is a God, he'd be part of the natural order anyway, and probably accounted for in a unified field theory.

If they did, that would contradict that basic tenet of science (being, that if something is observed enough, it is assumed to be true).

"Scientists will never come to the conclusion that something supernatural is going on".

No offense, but I do know that that is your position already :/
