Since faith is the evidence of things unseen, than to the holder faith is proof. Again, you may not have had any experience with the divine but you probably havn't wanted one. Perhaps one day.

It can...to the experiencer.

All truth is and can be circumscribed into one great whole. All truth is related to each other and is independent of opinion or understanding. Whether you feel you don't need religion doesn't mean it doesn't exist, the same with God. Science is always climbing over itself, making corrections as it acquires "further" information. If an advanced geneticist took some elementary students and let them "figure things out" it would be truth to them as far as they know but the scientist and his colleagues would just smile. For a man to lean on what other men have discovered while something so far greater is happening is like being stuck in a 2nd grade science class for a life time while others are organizing matter. Man may keep discovering and progressing in understanding but tomorrows truths will come from yesterdays errors.
