I recall being a little boy wondering when I was told that while there
is no evidence proving the existence of god there is also no evidence
showing his non-existence. Are those crippled who don't believer in CH?
I consider the background of CH given in the difference between number
and continuum. This might be crippled down to the truth? Do you agree?

No, I am sorry, I do not. The continuum is nothing but our failure to
look closely enough. In physics it lasted 2000 years to settle the idea
of the atom and to supplement and complete it by the uncertainty
relations. The majority of matematicians is not yet far sighted enough
to recognize the same situation in their realm.
