The one thing that really annoys me, is when anti-theists claim that "religion provides no proof", then "beefing" it with "...no scientific proof".
Why "scientific" is any better than any other, eg. personal experience?
If I myself experienced something that can clearly be called a small miracle (and there are many people that could claim BIG miracles, up to life saving), why call this NOT an evidence?
I have no wish to prefer "scientific" over "personal", simply cause the former quite too often is "idolized" as THE ONLY TRUE one.
Well, it's NOT.
I'm a sane smart person, thus my logical conclusions about MY experience are valuable, at the very least, to MYSELF.
I don't even need to "scientifize" on it, I already got my answer immediately myself.
On the other hand of scales, there are some "scientific theories" that can't be experienced, mainly due to them being in the old-old past, rather than in human reachable times.
There are facts in them, and also a whole load of assumptions and speculations.
These, I consider not more valuable than my personal experience, at the very least, cause what I experienced, is true in my "world", whereas what others just assumed, is only true in their world, not mine.
I'm not sure if you get my point, but basically my huge distrust of stuff like macro evolution, is based on its uncheckability and solely speculative nature.
Yes, we can't scientifically prove anything spiritual - but do we even need to?
As in, would it make it any more or less real for our experience, if we also applied some scientific explanation to what our very eyes saw and our very ears heard?
I say, no.
And I'm quite sure, that most of you, if honestly thinking, will agree with me.
