While I am still on the fence as to the existence of the divine, science has explained the existence of the universe without divine intervention, therefore, whether there is a God or not, it is not absolutely essential that he must exist.
But you know ... God is "maximally great" ... but only in specific ways defined by Christian philosophers like Alvin Plantinga. Therefore, God is necessary and possible ... and true! Therefore, JESUS!
No one can top such logic, no one!
Well there's Paul Tillich with his unreadable 'Ground of Being' verbiage. But then doesn’t that sum up all theology, they invent an impenetrable language to disguise the fact that they have nothing.
It's amazing 'science' always seems to 'find' whatever it is funded for, and never the oppsite. Drich.
