Come on, nobody depends on facts for everything. They'd have a severe problem in being able to conduct relationships if they depended on facts for everything and they'd also have huge problems in other forms of interaction, particularly with the big, bad world.

I'm neither here nor there as regards science versus god. I'm not a believer that you have to subscribe to the newsletters of one or the other, either. Do I have faith in things? Some things, but not the big man in the sky. I have what I hope are some logical theories on what may or may not exist, and some of those relate to god, but even then I do not necessarily attribute much belief to them - they are simply theories, and ones that I require in order to enjoy life.

Conjecture, questions posed and then attempts made to answer them, are what makes life interesting. In fact, that is the deepest essence of science when you think about it; theories made into questions which are themselves answered. Yet much of science never gets beyond theory, though some still would worship a theory as if it was fact and then make the point that their life is dependent on facts. Facts that they would never have been intelligent enough to discover for themselves, facts that they are often not intelligent enough to PROVE for themselves.

You see, we all of us have faith in something. For some of us it is a science textbook. Plain fact is that we are mostly too stupid to think for ourselves and have to have faith that what we are being told is the truth. Therefore I don't see the point in having a little faith in that which lingers around the edges; pseudo-sciences, fictional realities, things that may exist but probably don't.

My view on life is that we should be open-minded, though not at the expense of living within the reality that we are faced with. Thankfully for me, much of reality is very simple. Wake up, eat, move, eat, move, eat, move, sleep.

It's never all that complex so it doesn't really matter what I think. I wish I could break the universe down into such simple sentences.
