In time the man is caught and brought to trial. You hear the evidence which now includes the murderer's DNA and fingerprints. The wife says on the stand it could be him but she only saw him for that split second and says her attention was more on her dying husband. She breaks down in tears and is excused.
The trial goes on for days with each side presenting their case. One evening your trusted Christian friend comes over and tells you he has had a vision from God, Jesus himself spoke. He told your friend that the man is not the murderer. You must vote not guilty when it comes to the decision. At this point you must be somewhat confused because this friend has never lied ever before and he has your confidence.
On the one hand you have overwhelming scientific evidence. On the other you have human witnesses. The wife unsure. Your Christian friend is very sure that God has revealed to him the man's innocence. Do you go with science or revelation?
If you go with revelation, do you think that it should be allowed in this court case or for that matter any court case? Should it have equal value to DNA or more?
