“There are no atheists in foxholes” I think is the adage you’re looking for. But as far as searching for the truth, science and religion are two different things. I sometimes compare it to Picasso’s paintings vs. Picasso himself. You can study his paintings, but apart from a few insights it would be a very clumsy way of trying to know Picasso himself.
“There are no atheists in foxholes”
I changed the word Foxhole to “war firefight” because
most people don’t know what that
means in a war situation.
as I age I begin to see just how few Americans
(Thankfully) have ever been in the military.
Over half of my family were in the military or married into it.
I’m Vietnam era Vet, never went in country but in my job in the air force I was crawling over H bombs at age 18
BTW I also knew how to arm them.
So I will stay with war fighter, and leave leave foxholes to animal lovers( like me)
