Last thread kind of got derailed lol. To my theist peeps: Is it reasonable when the answer is unknown to conclude that god is the answer? [Spirituality & Religion]

Many creationists will say "I can't see how life could have evolved, therefor i am justified in believing god did it". Is that a justified rational?
Many will recognize this as a logical fallacy known as an argument from incredulity: If i don't know how x could be then i am justified in believing y.

Do you think this kind of thinking is a reliable way of knowing what is true?

I don’t know that faith is really about truth. It sort of creates its own truth and like everything else human, the result runs the gamut from beautiful to horrific. Someone who finds their truth elsewhere will never dent that faith. We all walk different paths so I think justification is a fruitless objective.
