Why would and how could nothing need an explanation?
Not really my bag, as I'm not inventing theologies or schisming into new ones. The religious, otoh, seem to think they know a hell of alot about the nothing they all understand to be god, and a crucial part of what they know is that their shit is stuff and the other guys stuff is shit.
Yes, I'm just trying to understand what you mean. What do you mean by "their explanation for the non-existent"?

That's the amusing bit for me, I wonder if anyone will ever really be satisfied with their current explanation of the non-existent? It seems as if there's an in-built and inseparable pathway for dissatisfaction there.
Oh wait, I get what you're saying now. You mean "I wonder if anyone will ever really be satisfied with their current explanation of the non-existent which they like to call "God" but is only real in their heads?"
Bold added.
Well, in that case I think they were self-satisfied a long while ago and they only bother with Theology because they think understanding it further is interesting or helpful but of course it isn't because they don't understand it in the first place. They think it's a genuine field of study because they think it refers to something real, but, unfortunately for them, it doesn't.
