I wonder how hard it is to keep tossing your faith in god's direction without any confirmation.Who says that no believers get confirmation? I have.
I don't deny it. But as I see it, that gives you confirmation of something on a par with my faith in the love of my loved ones and my faith in humanity. It doesn't give you access to anything on the order of science or reason. Through faiith, you can confirm that your god loves you, but not that any thing in the bible is true.
