thanks...I guess I will use this as my guiding light from now on
Some of the smartest people I have come across are/have been way more religious than I am and ever was. They have their way to reckon with the words in (say) the Bible, their deep faith.... and what they have come to understand in their scientific pursuits and careers. Some are still super smart too (in say practical means) without science background too.
Often in my earlier years.....I first assumed them to be agnostic or even atheist too....because I was not wise/aware to how people can be so nuanced and tempered on such matters. But there you have it, many are....me among them esp with age.
Truly the possibilities and permutations are infinite....and even finite numbers can be incredibly huge. It cannot be distilled so easily while maintaining fairness/humility. That is why an absolute reference of complete truth is something so many of us intuit....from there comes our faith and higher meaning and purpose...whatever it is.
