Science and Faith are different ways of thinking. You can't cross the two. Science will not prove the existence of God, and Faith is not going to assure you that your hypothesis will be true.
I am a scientist, well, I will be, hopefully in 12 months time. So I naturally think of things from a scientific perspective. But I also have faith in things, like people getting better when the circumstances are very grim. It may just be my natural optimism (on the flipside, my parents are quite pessimistic), but I just have faith in things, although I admit at times my mind has been so dark there is not one photon of light present....
I also happen to say "I know" quite often. I can't explain it, but I "just know". Anyone, especially my sister, will question me about something, and I'll just say "because I KNOW, y'know? I just KNOW". I don't have the correct answer, but I just KNOW.
I also know that, saying "I KNOW" has an implied meaning /wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink.gif" /> . Raum would be able to explain.
