God cannot have sin in his presence, and humans are sinful. Therefore, we should all be damned (I don't like it, but that's what the Bible says - note my reference to Romans 3).

With history you have to mostly rely on other peoples accounts. It is impossible to set up tests and run experiments. All you have is data that mostly has already been run through human perception and coloured from various sources.

Imaginary forces? What imaginary force caused the Universe to come into being? What imaginary force set up gravity, or magneticism? What imaginary force brought forth life from an improbable brew of chemicals?

Science doesn't explain the world, it just defines it.

Religion provides the details.

Here's a closing point: Recently I was debating with some Christians (in a very difficult situation since I had great reason not to offend them even though they resorted to the usual formula of threatening me with hellfire). One of them declared that, for people unaware of Christianity, "God looks into their eyes to see what they would have done". Of course, I couldn't give a noxious response like I would on the JC because these people would probably have been upset, causing great difficulties. However, I ask the question now:

Humans are details cydonia.
