Why Science Cannot Tell Us About Who We Are, And Our Origins

The use of science, in particular the Theory of Evolution, cannot be relied on to provide the correct explanations about who we are, and where we came from. You may ask, why is this? The answer is, science is all about guessing the way things are, and it produces models of its guesswork which we rely on in our lives. E.g. hypotheses, used in science, are guesses we make about phenomena, which we develop into theories based on observation and testing that we do. However, we do not know if ultimately our theories or models of the universe are correct: we just know that they are the best guesses we have.

Contrast the above to texts from God which we can see for ourselves are truthful. Now if all our observations about a society of individuals (the Godhead) show that they are truthful, is it unreasonable to believe their account of the universe, and their explanations about who we are, and why we are here?

The above is how we know that it is intellectually sound to believe texts from God, and intellectually unsound to rely on science for answers. Ultimately science cannot guarantee the truth, but we can rely on the truthfulness of God, to judge that His explanations of things are accurate.
