Where intelligence comes from?
What was before this universe?
How living come from non living?
How the delicate balance of laws of the universe allow life by chance?
Why do I think, feel and have spiritual thoughts?
Why I enjoy appreciating beautiful things in creation?
How the Bible is accurate such as the earth hangs on nothingness. Quarantine from diseases and safe bodily waste disposal that protected the Isrealites and when people of those time understood little about why or how themselves.

Science has it's role but when I ask the real deep questions the science becomes rather scant and more open to opinions rather than hard evidence. You think?

Hmmm no, these are fundimental questions that most people think about but there lies very little scientific answers.

It was the scriptures that described science and encouraged people to look at the evidence and draw conclusions. The first thing they were called to study was God. Why secularists fall on science to 'prove' God doesn't exist is beyond me.

What mistakes scientists make, they later on correct it to explain as accurately as possible. For the Bible however, it is subjected to selecting a piece of text and interpret it to fit a query. The lack of consistency makes it awkward for some to accept at face value -- if at all for yet some others.
Unknown could be explained by anyone, that does not however make them all truth at all times. I see no different in science and religion in the matter of truth. Having an open-mind is therefore the key to deduce explanations from observations.
Science promotes questions and skepticism for its methods to work properly and progressively over time. Scientists are able to leave things unknown until they find a plausible explanation.
Open-mindedness does not work too well with religion -- especially with Christianity -- as undeniable truth is claimed, yet faith is promoted without strong solid un-deniable evidence. Questions and skepticism are blatantly disregarded or even shunted as anti-religious or deemed evil.
So one is limited by religion to chose where to err on. Scientists would simply pick a side and move on ahead. While religious is stuck with opposing and unacceptable opinions without a handle to deal with it. I found that experience to be frustrating as well as arresting.
I found it easier to accept the existence of a "God" if we look into emergence instead of creation. I also find it more valuable for "God" to be included in the universe, rather than outside of it. I feel strongly regarding the similarity between human beings and computers. I am convinced that one day there would be computers and software sophisticated enough to be self-aware, process consciousness and be alive in all physiological aspects. These does not necessary conflict with the idea that the universe as a whole is alive and conscious and perhaps be "God" like in terms of science. Yet those aspects are not acceptable by Christianity as stated in the Bible. So I am stuck with what is not perfect and possibly wrong in science, but totally un-acceptable in Christianity.
IMO, it is simply a matter of personal choice in the long search of truth for our universe to use the scientific method -- with or without a brand of religion. So I chose without.

How does faith come to a individual? technological awareness exhibits that faith is a length of human theory originating interior the temporal lobe of the ideas. The temporal lobe contributes to the human auditory, speech, memory, emotional reaction and seen theory. This wasn't usually used till the start of the twenty first century. The Bible tells us this besides in Romans 10:17 "subsequently, faith comes from listening to the message, and the message is heard interior the process the notice of Christ."

Science doesn't have answers to give on questions like that. I thought about things like that before too and all I can say is God knows. He is ominpotent, omniscient, and omnipresent. He knows all and I feel there are somethings we are just not meant to know. You just have faith in God.

Some of your questions are answered.
Science is constantly growing. You can't expect to know everything right away. Or is that what you really want?

People who are spiritual do not concern themselves with these things.
They are irrelevant.
That is why people who are not are always seeking answers.

I have said this before but it bears repeating: In the case of our species, science is our brain and spirituality is our heart.

People have free will to think what they want to. Why ask silly questions when you could do service to God?
