But that's the thing about the concept of God--you can't have all the facts. The nature of the subject just doesn't allow that--it can't proved or disproved by science because it's beyond the realm of science. I don't see how we can know or not know if there's a God. We can believe that there's a god, and that's a powerful thing, but isn't it idealistic to be either certain or uncertain? I just don't see how we can know. As for organized religion, for my purposes, I think it's vile and evil, but I've known many who have been given great comfort and happiness and who are better people because of how they follow their religions (the way they were intended to, in my opinion), so to each his own. I feel like I can still say that, despite how thoroughly annoyed I am by religious fanatics.
