but you aren't trying to find life to be this way. I think you are safe no matter what can be proved, because I don't think there is a way to prove questions like, is there a soul or deeper meaning to our lives. Just because no one can prove existance of the soul - doesn't mean soul doesn't possibly exist. A lot of the skeptical debunking is just as assumptive as faith beliefs.
skeptic: something is not true just because it can't be proven.
faith belief: it's true just because the possibilty of it being true has not been dis-proven.
