How do you prove that the human attempt at knowledge can produce anything really true? And further, how do you know it can produce true knowledge about the origin of life and the universe?
Uhh..it works! Why do some theists say "well how do you know the scientific method produces actual knowledge?" Because it does. How do you think we advanced this far technologically with a clearly flawed method? So how about we compare the number of provable discoveries found via the scientific method, and the number found via 'revelation'?
