right - just like the idea that you'll wake up tomorrow has no observable evidence. until you wake up. in the same way, christians have no observable evidence that Jesus is their savior and will return to rapture them. until it happens.

to be clear, I don't believe it will happen, but I don't know. and if it did happen, their belief would be just as valid as a hypothesis as anything.

some footnotes: belief is the acceptance of something that has less than 100% evidence. also, religious people pursue their beliefs just as much as scientists do, just in a very different way.
