All hail the powerful and great Famine! All hail!!
Seriously though, no you shouldn't. You have made a strong argument. The problem with having this discussion with Famine and the like, is that our stance is backed by the knowledge of an omnipotent presence in our lives. They will never believe you because they have not experienced this for themselves. Everything you say is hearsay and conjecture. Even if there are millions of people that experience the same 'relationship' as you with a God of all creation, this holds no 'value' of fact for them. They live in a world of observing God's greatness and don't even know it while they hold on the truths of science that leaves them with an understanding of how God works within the capacity of our intellectual ability.
Additionally I think it is quite apparent that FAMINE and likely Danoff too are wired a little differently than we are.
The more I examine their statements the more I recognize their approach is not the same. At this point I would express it as: they are "how" men and we are more "why" men. They insist upon knowing the intricacies of "how" to reach belief. I myself consider the "hows" of secondary importance. I have to know the "whys" first or as to motive. What are the power and forces at work in everything. That is where I concentrate my efforts.
At any rate its just my observation.
Just in case, I'm not implying or inferring anything either way as to one being better or worse than the other. Rather I think it goes to diversity for balance and coverage.
