Something similar has been bugging me for several years now. How can a
scientist believe in the existance of a God? Any good scientist holds that a
statement is only true when there is scientific evidence to prove it. Yet,
scientists like Dan also believe in the existance of God, even though there
is no scientific evidence to prove that God exists.

So, how can a scientist believe in God when he is trained to only accept
that what is scientifically proven?
