How you know a God is even possible, that even if such existed it could effect the natural world is just a faith position ...
While you maintain your position that anything you can't understand is God, I'm done
I never claimed that. What I have claimed is that a scientific understanding of the Universe is based upon the Conservation Laws. If a single instance of a macroscopic violation can be repeatedly replicated under controlled conditions, such is proof, for me at least, of something non-physical in the Cosmos. Call such an entity what you will; I would call such a being "God".
By the way, I think that AC Clarke was wrong. Any advanced civilization would still be subject to the Conservation Laws. Faster-than-light travel is a physical impossibility, no matter how "advanced" a civilization might be.
