BBella: This goes back to what I have observed within my own experience over the years...I can prove whatever I choose to believe with whatever I choose as evidence to prove it with. - This is exactly what is wrong a religious upbringing. First you choose what to believe, then you seek out evidence to confirm the belief and try to ignore anything that counts against it. I was brought up in the English empiricist tradition, as exemplified by science and the detective story, that you look at the evidence first and then you decide what you believe.
