My personal belief is based on faith and some circumstantial evidence.
All religions are based almost entirely on faith.

What is the purpose of any debate on the existence of God?
Mario responds:
This question should be addressed to Padre Ivo. Once I had convinced him
that science cannot prove or disprove the existence of God, I thought the
matter
would end right there. However, he has persisted in trying to turn the
English language
upside down and use some popycock experiments by a Dr. Beauregard to try and
use science
to prove that God exists.
***Mario, you are misquoting and misinterpreting me. I only repeated that
Science cannot prove
nor disprove the existence of God. It does not mean that our belief in God
is just a figment of mind,
without the reality of God, whom we come to know through reason and
Revelation. Neuroscientific
experiments of Dr.Mario Beauregard show the singularity of the 'mystical
experiences', but do not
prove the existence of God. Science cannot prove it, but the experiment
shows that the experience
is mediated by a reality outside the brain. Otherwise, it would be
'hallucination'...
Regards.
Fr.Ivo
