You believe in the wind because you can feel it and see it's actions, well I can feel God and see His actions, what I wonder is why can't you?
If god was as easy to detect as the wind, everyone would acknowledge that god exists.
If god was as easy to detect as black holes, or neutrinos, or dark matter, many would doubt, but there would be basis for debate.
God isn't even as easy to detect as dark matter. Why does anyone believe that he exists?
(Can we finally put that silly "you can't see the wind" argument to rest?)
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
