But that does not make your realization, nor the fact that you have a mother, any less based in reality than if, at the time, you had a mature intelligence able to apprehend this fact through all of your senses, i.e. in a "scientifically" quantifiable way. Only outside of your conscious experience could these facts have been observed and noted.
I bring this up only as an example to show that regardless of where we are in the way of personal experience, there may be FACTS that lay beyond our comprehension because we have not yet developed the tools to gather evidence and comprehend.
I don't know that anyone is arguing that.
MY only contention is that until we "develop the tools to gather evidence and comprehend", God's involvement in creation can't be shown, and so it can't be taught in science class...
Fester, it seems to me that you are frustrated because you can't prove you're correct when it seems so obvious to you.
It's still my opinion that God wants us to have to make the "leap of faith" - to believe in Him even though we can't quantitatively prove His existence.
But then again, I don't have any problem with science and religion being different and requiring different "skills" - just like math and English are different and require different skills and different ways of thinking.
