Explain how an immaterial entity can interact with a material universe.


Show your work.

Simple. 

1. If God exists, he is immaterial (be definition)
2. The universe is material (by definition)
3. If God exists, then God is the best explanation of the universe (from Occam's razor, PSR)
4. If God exists, an immaterial God created a material universe (from 1-3)
5. Creation is causation (be definition)
6. Therefore, if God exists, the immaterial has causation over the material. (from 4-5)

I make that four "Ifs".
It's amazing 'science' always seems to 'find' whatever it is funded for, and never the oppsite. Drich.
