Could you elaborate a bit more on your statement, Godscreated? For example, does your statement only apply to people who interpret reality in a theistic manner? Is it possible to prove the truth of your statement without relying on faith to some degree?
I wouldn't call it a theistic interpretation or manner. Literal biblical Christians see it the same way. The only thing I can offer you is a DVD called the 'Star of Bethlehem,' in which a man named Rick Larson studied astronomy for many years and comparing it to the Bible to offer us evidence of the creation. He used the Bible as an absolute guide, the astronomy had to line up with the Bible or the 'Star' would have been considered a miracle of the time. Instead he shows how God knew from His creation what the 'Star" would be without using a miracle other than the orderly miracle of creation and God's absolute knowledge of the movement of His creation. It will be up to you to decide if it's proof or not.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
