It's not: what it is, is an acceptance that we aren't in possession of all the facts and that, given this, the intellectually honest thing to do is not to latch onto an answer until we do know more.Total cop out. The OP isn't about what you know its about how you know it.
In the OP, I have shown that the validity of empirical observations presupposes divine influence. It is irrational to demand empirical evidence if you disavow the principles that justify knowledge acquisition by means of empirical observation.
