1) It is not science. It's philosophy. The same approach used by the Church Fathers. 2) It is not actually a proof, so much as a clarification of the choice between belief and nihilism.

That has never been an excuse for remaining ignorant. God wants us to know Him, not only from His revelation but also through observation of nature and the application of reason.

Is it more ignorant to think you know everything or to understand that there are things in this world that we don't understand? Which is the fool?
