This always gets reduced to 'God works in mysterious ways', 'some things are beyond our understanding' and it all comes down to 'faith'. The greatest theological minds today and throughout history, brilliant people, but in the end the best they can come up with is 'faith', which I admit is better than the crazy ones who actually try to cobble together explanations based on some fucked up understanding they have of science i.e. Intelligent Design


I think strident atheists have their own issues, there are too many unsolved mysteries beyond our understanding and knowledge to claim we know the truth, saying there is nothing is no more fact than saying there is something. Atheists work on faith too.
