Comment on Comments

Today I found myself in an interesting Theological discussion in the comments section of the popular blog Boing Boing. I try to not get into these talks too much. There was one comment made by a gentleman going by the alias "Uncle Eccoli" that I felt was truly quote-worthy:

Faith is all about humility, though not in a particularly religious sense. Faith is simply the recognition of Man's limitations - an acknowledgement of our incomplete understanding of the natural world. Religion is an avatar of faith and provides a construct for its expression principally (though not exclusively) for the simple and narrow.
The rise of science has created a growing intellectual hubris in modern humanity that lends itself to the erroneous notion that we've discovered and understand more than we have yet to. There is far too little wonder in science today and far too much arrogance. There will always be things we don't know. Always. Science has become too ready to dictate to the world what is and is not real, what is and is not possible.

Beautifully put, Unk!
