>May I ask, however, why it doesn't apply both ways? Why does DD have to "prove" his viewpoint for you to accept it? IOW why is "science" a more acceptable oracle than "God"?

PMFJI, but does DD say he doesn't know? I have tended to stay out of the religious debates, although I have been lurking. From what I have read, DD says he does know, unequivically.
