59. Per my post #57, I don't view that sign as an affirmation of faith so much as a lack of it.
I believe if you truly have faith, reason can't touch it because religious/spiritual faith doesn't require scientific proof.

Faith only requires that you feel it, this is in the emotional sphere of human consciousness, not the logical.

My position on cases such the billboard, is that reason isn't the enemy of faith, it's only the enemy of those lacking faith and yet claiming to be believers.

Reason can't prove or disprove the existence of a Creator because our laws wouldn't apply.
