What is it about our evolution as humans (I don't have a problem with the theory of evolution) that we can even ask the question "why."
Is there a difference between "why do the stars move that way" and "how do the stars move that way." Aren't scientists moved to investigate by asking why, not just how?
(By the way, my wife sometimes says to me when I ask her a question, "why do you ask?" And I answer, "in order to find out." So my questions are just those, questions. I have no other motive than to learn from other people's answers).
No complaint. Only questions.

But think of the amount of information we have learned in just the last 150 years. It's staggering. The rate that we are learning new stuff about the universe and it's origins, the origins of life and it's subsequent evolution is accelerating. The gaps that believers use God to fill are shrinking constantly. We aren't capable of knowing everything. That is not a good reason to believe in God.
