According to philosopher/theologian Dr. Peter Kreeft, philosophical proofs can be valid proofs without having to be scientific proofs.

In Today's Homily, Fr. Chris Alar reflects on the tragedy of unbelief: even after witnessing Jesus’ miracles, hearing His divine teachings, and seeing clear signs of His identity, many people, including His own disciples at times; still struggled to believe. Father Chris reminds us that our generation has received an even greater fullness of revelation, yet many still refuse to believe, especially in the Real Presence of Jesus in the Eucharist. Christ does not perform miracles on demand or satisfy every challenge for a sign. Faith cannot be reduced to saying, “Show me a miracle, and then I will believe.” As Our Lord teaches, blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.
