The crazy/insane excuse?When you talk about supernatural experiences you are either crazy or science has a so-called explanation.

I try to take it all in stride, but yes, that can be difficult.

In the final analysis or "at the end of the day", so to speak, few people can truly discern science from religion.

Meh, doesn't really bother me. If people can't see anything outside of science, that's their loss and not mine. It is like a blind person criticizing my hairstyle -- meaningless.

Science is about learning about the natural world without resorting to supernatural ideas. Just because science cannot currently answer some of the more pressing questions about the universe does not mean that there must be supernatural elements at work.

It also doesn't mean that the supernatural isn't real. There are many unexplained things that will never be answered by science.

It takes up too much energy to despise something.

Not really. I have better things to spend my energy on, like chores for example.

I believe in science, it's my favourite fairy tale

Lots of it has a plausible explanation.

People will always find the answer they want to any question. or as they say in Jim Buchers books "People see what they want to see, even if the answer is more insane then magic"
