Science cannot and will never be able to answer questions that don’t yield to its methods and techniques and the question of God or spirit is foremost among them.

In basic terms of the philosophy of science, you are talking about unfalsifiable questions. But science is starting to move beyond that basic test, and I don’t think we non-scientists need to say anything more about that discussion. We all just want answers. Some are content with the ones their culture hands them. Fortunately some aren’t, or we’d never progress. Once you decide to question the authority of age or wisdom or experience or power or might you need a way to work through the different possible answers. Taking the word of a few people is what got you into whatever un-true state you and are now attempting to escape. I could go into the details of how, but just I’ll say, to me, it’s the authorities I listed above that are designed to not yield to truth. Science is designed to allow for questions to every answer it has ever presented.
