You may think, but there are certainly those who "am" and don't.  We are
by default are like sheep.  It takes concerted effort to turn that
gray-matter into a thinking machine, and unfortunately there are not many
in this age which will do so.

The Scientific-Method is an important guideline, but through logical
analysis is reduced to "a good method to approach learning", not the
answers to all questions.  To think otherwise would be ludicrous since it
one would have to then assume that all that can be known is observable in
a measureable fashion.  The very existence of a Living God, who chose NOT
to be manipulated would disruptall attempts at measurement for may things.
 This is why there are still "Wonders Of The World".  While we attempt to
sweep any religeous possibilities under the carpet, we end up doing a
great deal of damage to the world, both for those who do not believe in a
supreme being as well as those who do.
