Credo ut intelligam. or. maybe Non possum intellegere nisi credam. Si non credas, non possis (- is that right?) intellegere. (It always helps if I make up my Latin as I go along.)
This is because, surprise surpise, theology is an empirical science. I have learned about grace mostly by being granted grace.

This is because, surprise surpise, theology is an empirical science. I have learned about grace mostly by being granted grace. May God ever bless you for saying this, MadDawg. Anything that human beings have ever done in history is "empirical" if it's recorded and available for consultation. Even Richard Dawkins would have to grant this, or else the fossil record disappears.
But your second statement is what really hit home, in the Spirit of Truth. May God bless you, brother.
