It always shocks me how the message from religion is often to turn off the perfectly good brain God gave us, and just believe what we're told.
That's one the only message. Some of us believe faith is an experience.
I have wondered of this too, and you can't really say that the experiences accumulated by the world's scientist's aren't more varied, and often more intense than for people who spend their time in churches.
Do you think you can be a little more specific about this "experience" which you (and so many others) refer to?
