Turn the tables eh?
Answer the question please Kyu. C'mon... admit defeat - you'll feel better for it
It is YOUR hypothesis, it is therefore YOUR responsibility to produce both evidence to support and to define what would falsify it ... it is not now and never has been mine!

I have no intention now or ever of debating Frodo formally again ... the problem is one of different philosophies.
I believe that the universe is coherent, rational, guided by a consistent and inherently explainable set of rules, Frodo (by virtue of his belief in a god that is unexplainable and requires no evidential support) believes that I am somehow insane despite the fact that his "hypothesis" explains nothing, predicts nothing, is inherently non-falsifiable, offers no real value outside of a psychological comfort blanket and cannot be rationally distinguished from a nothing requiring the exact same amount of evidential support.
As such we just talk past each other ... it's pointless I know but I keep trying in the hope that someone, somewhere will understand the point I am making.
