Quote:To someone who is versed in understanding physics, and/or mathematics this might make some sense, but for the vast majority of people on the planet it is just so much mumbo jumbo. For many, to believe in these untestable cosmological ideas requires faith.Just because people don't understand it doesn't make it the same as religion. Religion just takes anything that isn't understood, and attributes it to god(s). Imagine if someone didn't understand how their car worked, so rather than trying to understand, they decided their was a deity inside of it that liked offerings of gasoline. When this deity got angry the car had to be repaired. You can't prove there isn't a deity inside the car making it work, so it must be there.
