Well that kind of makes sense. Knowing God doesn't require any science, just faith...faith kind of gives you the license to say whatever you want. While some people's faith I find...well...disturbing....it doesn't bother me as much when they keep it in the "faith" realm. It becomes a serious problem when they try to cloak it as a science and pretend it can be used as a counter argument to scientific theory.
