It was fun for a while, I haven't jumped into one of these kinds of threads for a long time. If I've offended anyone it wasn't my intention. I was going for the fun exchange of ideas.

However, I can see that its likely to take a more serious turn if the focus becomes trying to define an ultimate omnipotent being in charge of running the universe. Even with the best knowledge science has to offer I can only imagine that it can't take into account all the data there is to consider, not only because it is vast and un-reachable but that we don't as yet have all the scales by which to measure it. 

A 100 years ago some people really really believed in the science of Ether (not the alcohol based substance)as a massless medium that bound the void of the universe together, eventually discarded as a theory that had no weight. Time passes and the footprints of neutrinos start to lead the conversation back to what sounds a lot like ether.

The Force, midichlorians, the Great Magnet, whatever you call it, reams of forests printed  with  scientific data are offered as a sacrifice to appease He Who Pays the Bills not to withdraw funding. That is little consolation when each of us ride the giant wave of existence and struggle to keep our balance on a daily basis. It seems only natural that each person sometime in their life is going to try and make a direct call to The Source without having to pass through the belly of a scientist. 

and for the record I love science.
