If god revealed himself to me, why do you think it would "not bear any fruit"? If he revealed himself, I would believe in him. If god will only reveal himself after I believe, then he's a dolt. He's stupid. He's illogical. He would also be completely useless. If I don't need god in order to believe in god... oh, I see. That explains it, I guess.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
