That’s the beauty of science, I don’t have to experience something to believe it to be factual, and if I experience something that I don’t understand, I can work to find out without having to immediately believe something is objectively factual or not. I’m okay with not knowing until I find out. That’s the problem with religionists, they require answers but substitute superstition and “faith” in place of actual provable fact. The point of science is the endless pursuit of objective discovery and fact.

All this to say, I do not buy into the premise that I must make a belief in something just because I experience it.
