...without the wherewithal to be a judge of science, philosophy, or logic, you nonetheless accept the conclusions of science as being disposative.... This, without understanding the philosophical underpinnings of science, the logical thought to know when the conclusions are either warranted, or sufficient, or the knowledge of the science itself....That leaves...belief.

Outstanding observations, dear grey_whiskers! Thank you so very much!

You don’t have to have a degree in science or faith in much of anything to see that looking for answers in the physical world is a better idea than looking for answers in the ancient accounts of the delusional ramblings of power-hungry men.
