If I can be allowed to stretch the metaphor a bit:

It was a scientist, adhering to the scientific method - that is, logic and reason - that actually discovered how radio waves work, and it was also a scientist who figured out how to make the FM receiver. It was a scientist or engineer, adhering to the principles of reason, who figured out how to get the radio receivers mass produced and and a scientist who designed the trucks that delivered them to the stores...and so on.

My point - my end of the frequency actually produces tangible results and makes accurate predictions. The other end of the frequencies offers nothing but empty promises and wishful thinking. Indeed, they never, literally never, produce anything that can be tested and verified.

Think about everything, every manner of phenomenon that once had a supernatural explanation but was replaced by a natural, logical, scientific explanation (lightning, volcanoes, the diversity of life, etc.) However, there are zero phenomena that once had a natural, logical, scientific explanation that was later discarded for a better, supernatural explanation.

If I accept your analogy that we can't tune in to their station and they can't tune in to ours, that's fine with me. Mine actually works.
I'm a bitch, I'm a lover
I'm a goddess, I'm a mother
I'm a sinner, I'm a saint
I do not feel ashamed
