<<>For those who are unwilling to accept theology (the queen of the

Sorry to be a pedant, but theology is NOT a science.
Science is based upon falsifiability. By its very nature, theology has no
theory which is, at least in principle, falsifiable. If you can make a
claim that is not open to being falsified, then no-one can say anything
meaningful about the theory. For how can you be proved right if there is
never any chance of being proved wrong?
