Not as a matter of science, but as a force of logic, if you will.
Of course I can no more prove it, than you can disprove it.
In summation, we are both men of faith, I suppose. Though this begs the question of whose faith is more reasonable; in my view, faith in the absence of reason is blind.
If there is no transcendant reason, or purpose for us being here, our "reason" will die a cold, slow death..as the universe succombs to absolute entropy.
How depressing.

It takes no faith at all to believe in the existence of the natural world. We can observe that it exists. When there is observable, verifiable, testable evidence for a super-natural world, it will require no faith to believe in that one either. Until then, it does, and my mind doesn't entertain such a purely conjectural domain.

No, not both of us.

Depressing? Yes, if I let it get to me. True? Perhaps. I want to know the truth, even if it's unpleasant.
I'm pretty sure we're not going to exist that long to witness the heat death of our universe ;->
