"they will not add up if one used conventional science" They will not add up if we use conventional science as we understand it today. I'm not saying everything is knowable- if you think I said that, you misread my post, but you foreclosed the option of knowing- in other words, using your belief you say it will never be known. While that's possible, I don't see how one can make such a statement absolutely. One can look down on faith for foreclosing things, as well as for believing in things that aren't there. FWIW I have no faith in what isn't demonstrably there, no do I have faith in what cannot be found. I leave open the possibilities. Not that I look down on all faith. I'm quite satisfied with the Buddhists, who don't have any conflict in their cosmology with science (at least as the Dalai Lama articulates the faith).
