Don't feel badly, Seth. Even Kant, one of the most brilliant philosophers who ever lived had a hard time proving theology. He had the faith but his attempts at theological proofs were among his weakest arguments and he often avoided them altogether. How does being more or less educated lead one to literally see into eternity? That's ridiculous. Eternity is a concept and, by definition, is indiscrete, inconcrete and unknowable. Just because your faith leads you to believe you literally CAN see such things, it does not mean that you are any more capable than I to do so. It's just not real. Get it?
