Aside from the esscatology implied by certain kinds of questions, I find it amusing that people think everything can be reduced to dichotomies.

The possibility that things are actually beyond our understanding never seems to occur to anyone except scientists who spend their lives trying to understand things.

When you believe you have The Truth Card®, you think you can trump any uncertainties or inconvenient facts.

That is not true. Christians realise that there is an awful lot that is beyond their understanding but whenever they admit it they get ridiculed for believing in fariy tales and being *unscientific* and *anti-intellectual*. Christians are willing to take on faith the things they accept as beyond their comprehension in spite of that mockery.

Scientists have no corner on the intellectual market and are not the superior beings that they are constantly putting themselves forth as. As far as dichotomies, scientists are pretty good as putting those forth. Just question some currently held cherished scientific belief and watch what happens; like what happens on these threads all the time.

esscatology

Someone spelled it wrong, it should be "Esskaytology", viz:

Full Disclosure: Go Orioles, and Go Eat Esskay Franks! :-)
