EV did mention at one point that to him, personal logical reasoning was evidence enough. I want to see if that's still the case. What he seems to link that to now is verifiable evidence - a circular argument.
And that just brings us back to you defining your god out of science but just because you can so define it doesn't mean it exists or even that its existence is possible. As I said earlier your god and the evidence for it shows a strong (as in 100%) correlation with the kind of evidence we'd expect for things that don't exist so, pray tell (sic), how the fuck do we tell them apart?

In practical purposes time is just a means of measuring something, a metric. I'm sure there's more to it than that but you'd have to talk to a physicist I suppose and I'm not one.
