    Personally, I prefer science/facts and logic. I certainly don't
    question the authenticity of your faith experience. One disturbing
    example of this, though, is that there were times in my life where I was
    "absolutely certain" and convinced that YEC (and later, day-age, were
    true). And now, even though I don't believe the evidence supports
    Christianity, I still have the same "inner spiritual presence" that
    I was so certain was the Holy Spirit. Go figure.
