Faith didn't get them to the moon. Science and technology did. Proof? Pray for your god to to deliver you to the moon.

What, that's absurd?

And what if the tools of science confirm that "god made it that way". Must science and religion be mutually exclusive of one another? Certainly the NASA astronauts did not feel that way. Do you think those American heros are stupid like me?

If science were to prove that "god made it that way", then your god would not be omnipotent AND quite tangible. In fact, he'd being nothing more than an alien being who tricked you into believing he was something that he is not....AND I would have undeniable proof because he would be able to replicate the experiment with like or similar results every time.

Basically what I've been telling you all along, genius, that religion is a hoax designed specifically to control the ignorant masses.
