What is transcendent needs no protection from science.


Try an experiment, see if this works for you:

  1. Pray. About anything, just to see if anyone or anything is out there.

  2. See if something happens.

  3. If nothing happens, you’ve wasted very little time or energy in checking.

  4. But if something does, my, what you’ve gained.

(If you recognize it, it is a variation on Pascal’s wager, except that instead of choosing to believe for no reason, we are seeing if there actually is a reason to believe, after all.)
