173. Where did I ever state....
that I "know all there is to know". Being a Scientist I'm frightfully aware of how ignorant I am and unraveling life's secrets is a lifetime project. The more I learn the more I'm convinced that my ignorance outstrips my knowledge by an order of magnitude. And I NEVER "dismiss that that which I cannot prove". THOSE are the mysteries that keep me going, that make me WANT to delve further into the physical world. However, not being able to prove them DOES NOT mean that they are supernatural of paranormal. That assumption is as ridiculous as what you accuse me of.

It seems that the religious are the people who seem to "know all there is to know". It's amazingly easy when you never question anything and use the blanket of "faith" to explain the inexplicable.

My money is on Science solving the world's problems. Where's yours?
