My wife just picked up a very interesting book that purports to "completely counter" materialism. That will probably be my next spot since my largest "stumbling block" as it were to ID is the fact that my epistemology refuses to deal with non-material claims. I need a good reason to abandon it if I'm ever to take a deity seriously.

It tackles nearly all the philosophical concepts we deal with. Having read the introduction, I fear I will be disappointed because it seems to simply apply to Dawkins-Atheists and not the perennial doubters like myself. -The big question I have is "How can the scientific method work without an assumption of materialism?"-We'll see...
