We definitely don't have a complete explanation of our universe. But even if we did that wouldn't get us to God, right?

Frankly I don't see the connection one way or the other, however complete our understanding may become.  But my best guess is that the elusive complete list of everything that exists will not include anything at all like a god. Just my best guess.

Absolutely, that god hole is available to all and any.
