I think the important step, before we can be open to god and the mystery of the universe, is to demonstrate that god is a part of the universe first. Without that you're kinda putting the cart before the horse.

I'm not dismissing anything, except arguments from popularity.

Quote:My current opinion is that science is not capable of proving or disproving God since it fails to consider the existence of the supernatural and so he's wasting his time trying to determine why.

Science works based on what can be detected, tested and falsified. If you can't detect the supernatural, which is the only way that science would be unable to test it, then how do you know it exists in the first place?
