On the subject of Hell and Salvation

[GrandizerII]

"How do you know that?" you constantly ask.

Do you believe in the existence of dark matter? If so, why? Because scientists say it exists? Aren't you just making a declaration, repeating something you don't really understand and have never observed, saying it's true because men have said it's so (when men are proven liars, no less)? Aren't you putting your faith in men concerning this thing, then?

First of all, "dark matter" is really just a name for something that's clearly there but we just don't know what it is (hence the name).

But that aside, yes, a lot of the times, we do have to accept what the experts in scientific fields have to say on the matters that they happen to be experts on. But the potential to reason your way to the statements made by scientists is nevertheless there, so long as you have the required resources and knowledge to do so. The good news about Gods is you don't necessarily need any special education or tools to reason your way to them ... but the bad news is you most likely can't anyway.
