Incomplete does not mean completely useless. It has very practical applications as a science. But even with being incomplete it is not a bronze age comic book, and no it does not justify "anything goes by default". And it still does not justify one god claim over another. On top of Hawking saying "A God is not required".

Don't feed religion with talk like this. They'll twist the word "incomplete" as "AH HA SO YOU DON'T HAVE ALL THE ANSWERS.....Therefore my deity did it!"

Don't take that as a demand, just advise because we also have to deal with it when they put stupid definitions on words like "Law" and "theory". Just saying.

Even if Many-Worlds Interpretation turns out to be true, Jesus still would not be the God of the whole cosmos.
