I really hope you don’t take the route of “well I just don’t know the answer to that”, this is what my mom does. Basically you begin the search WITH THE CONCLUSION and if something doesn’t jive with that conclusion then you " just haven’t found the answer yet". Nothing will make you question your faith as no objection can be raised that you will seriously look at. If there is evidence contrary to what you believe you assume the evidence is being misinterpreted and “you haven’t found the answer”- The complete opposite of rational thinking.
Science = Evidence → Conclusion
Faith = Conclusion → Evidence

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha, hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. Breathe. hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha! I am a scientist and work with scientists every day, and that is just plain bullshit.
it is more like this:
Science = Conclusion → Evidence
Faith = Conclusion
there is a nice post in nutrition where another scientist talks about the fact that a ton (I would say most) scientists make a conclusion, call it a theory, and then do everything they can to find evidence supporting it, all while ignoring evidence to the contrary.
Science in its true and honest form is hard to find these days. If you can find it at all. I fear it is nearly extinct if not extinct already.
EDIT: the laughing was rude, and I should apologize. But when people start worshiping science (almost like a religion) it makes me laugh a little. OK, it makes me laugh a lot.
