Watching Cosmos, sometimes I feel there are still holes to be filled where I am questioning science.
Of course, this very desire for knowledge and willpower to not accept something on the basis of it being told to me is precisely why I am not a theist today.
Then I remember that science does not fill holes with a readily comforting answer as does religion.
Science has always been comfortable with stating it does not know something despite the immense pressure of society to provide an answer.
Science does not cave, and those who are too impatient for answers are also too dumb. Sadly, the too dumb phenomenon is what comprises the majority of human population.
