Best Answer

Evidence is something observable (measurable) or tangible that provides support to an explanation or shows that the explanation needs to be modified. The term "prove" (in the US, generally) is much more often used within the legal system, not in science, as science doesn't really try to "prove" things, but to support or refute them with evidence.

The more evidence, the more likely it is to be true.

Evidence, by definition, cannot be non-scientific.

What is the difference between a scientific inquiry and non-scientific inquiry?

Scientific inquiry is a process of developing an explanation of a question in the natural world (or universe) by testing, investigating and collecting data that will either support or refute your original idea of what's going on. A non-scientific inquiry is one that does not use a systematic collection of evidence or one that tries to find answers to questions about things other than the natural world/universe, such as beliefs. "Is Enceladus a moon of Saturn?" is a scientific enquiry. "Did Jesus believe in Judaism?" is an nonscientific enquiry.
