If You're A Diehard Empiricist...
...you can leave now. Go take a dump or hang out with other turds. This post is for thinking people.
When I was a younger man I was anti-science, which led me to my philosophical side. Which led to my religious side. So I went to college at a Benedictine monastery. Fascinating experience, but I was too much of a rebel to go the full course.
As I've gotten older, I see the how the disciplines work together. There are no set answers. There are only arrogant shitheads that refuse to admit that it works both ways. If there is a God, which empiricists won't admit, then they immediately beg the question. Shit for brains.
You can choose to believe or not. It becomes a matter of faith. What sticks in my craw is individuals that want it both ways. God either is or he/she/it isn't. I've always followed the credo that I hope God believes in me.
I hope it for you as well.

GS,
Well said. I tip my hat.

You never wore a hat to cover that bald head...but thanks...
you said it well enough for me..I reckon that science is just man trying to discover god and religion is god made by man.
I have no doubt that there is a god..or at least a power much higher than any of mine..but I do have my doubts that ANY of the mad made religions have made the right call..I trust a science a lot more than I do a holy man.
Guy...never trust anyone that comes at you under the guise of religion...you and sweetthing are covered...
I believe in everything a little. It's simpler that way.
Gs,
I do now. Sunburn on top is tough to sleep with.
