Indeed.

You see my problem is that science has yet to answer 'Why' anything happens.
There are lots of good theories on how things happen but not one single answer
as to why. It is my observation that people believe by analyzing things on an
increasingly smaller scale they hope to find the answer. I really don't see how
that will be any more effective than the Taoist approach of meditating in
search of perfect enlightenment. (Science still hasn't worked.) The faith that
science holds all the answers seems as silly to me as (no doubt) my belief in
god is to you. Now I do believe science has its place, after all it does help
us understand how things occur. I also happen to believe that limiting oneself
to accept only that which is tangible will prevent Humans from further
evolving and learning 'Why'.
