But they forget that sensors are lying, and at best,
they only detect what they find that it is logic to
present, hereby the not logical detections are not
presented

Similarly, science only presents the logical interactions,
and forget that all these are a result of infinitely many
chaotic interactions, which cannot be detected and
according to science they do not exists.

The functionality of a brain is driven by chaos and chaotic
interactions competing for dominance, which results in
a logical action or decision one may take, so the chaos
must be there in the first place

Therefore it makes no sense to pretend that what we have
out there is only what we detect

I think I have to turn over to religion, which definitely will
tell me more than science today does

What religion do I have to choose, what religion is closest to
deepest reality?

I will give you my answer, as follows:

There are two sources of 'evidence'. One is the outer
world, as used by science, and the other is the inner
experience of the individual. When this includes an
experience of God, it is religion.

Since genuine love is the true life, even for God,
the practical true love for God and other beings
allows the Creator to be involved with the soul, which
is the true life. True wisdom follows as a product of
such a true life, rather than the reverse.

The lowest form of knowledge, though all truth has its
value, is the science of the outer world. With the recent,
careless allowance of the 'counterintuitive', however,
science has degraded much of its usefulness as a form of
knowledge. Philosophy is higher than science, because
it comes from the living mind, which is higher than dead
matter. But the highest form of knowledge is the wisdom
that is the product of true religion, because it comes
directly from the Creator.

Hymns, liturgies, and incantations, as theatre or
superstition, are not true religion, or true life.
