In many cases compelling evidence is enough to beleive in something that is worth believing in.

I believe by FAITH...
There are many things in this world that we believe that cannot be proven.. an example is something like when someone says that their favorite flavor is strawberry.. it cannot be proven.. but we accept it as being true...
People in ancient times saw Angels and heard voices and witnessed miracles but still they did not believe...
And some people have picked apart the Bible piece by piece, examined, discussed, and pieced it back together as they saw fit.. and in my opinion they were still unable to destroy God's message to us within its pages...
Many people talk of science as if it is the FINAL answer to all things.. but in my opinion there is absolutely NO PROOF that dinosaurs even walked the earth.. we have fossils.. but were these fossils created by God within the ground at the formation of the earth?.. there is no proof of this either.. no humans were around to witness.. but even if there were.. many non-believers would not believe the witnesses...
Was the earth formed as if it had evolved? Evolutionists that I have had long discussions with seem to think that God could not possibly have made the animals similar to each other just as if they had evolved from one species to another...
If evolution was really true.. would there not be a full spectrum of animals upon the earth today? Would the fish not still be evolving into land walking air breathing animals? Would there not be some observable and repeatable proof (in all of the millions of fruit fly tests that have been done not ONE new species has been formed.. or at least it never got published as far as I know)...
If you gave an artist an unlimited amount of clay and told him to make 6 billion items.. would not some of them be similar to others that he made? and yet.. the artist made each one.. they did not evolve from one to another...
I do not know the answers.. but I have FAITH and therefore I do not need proof for my peace of mind.. but I REQUIRE ABSOLUTE PROOF (and repeatable results) from science.

It is called faith.
At one point, the concept that the world was round was considered unprovable and illogical. Funny what time and revelation can do to what we consider illogical.
I submit that to accept the majesty of creation as a cosmic coincidence is a leap of faith into the illogical...

Don't even the most logical people believe in things every day? If you can prove that something is true, does this mean you don't believe it's true any more? Faith and logical proof are only antithetical to weak minds.

I also believe in those things that science has proved. I believe god has a method to do all things. Science is gods way of showing us how things work. After all he did invent science, and logic.

Because God's existance HAS been proven to His believers, dear one.

It is an easier answer than trying to discover the facts of the universe by yourself using science.

You'd be suprised how many things you have been taught that cannot be proven. Jesus is real.

They have been brainwashed and either can't or won't think for themselves. It is, after all, easier to deal with a fairy tale than reality.
