Gravity itself is the observed effect...not the god-damned theory. Would you like to establish the analytic statement being made with regards to the trinity...or how the trinity explains why this analytic statement is true? Perhaps produce an observable effect? There are many mysteries in the world, your pantheon of gods is not one of them. It is, perhaps..one of the least mysterious things in human experience (and mostly because it's adherents can't keep their own fantasies to themselves).
Ok...Gravity is an "observed phenomena"...but the essence of the term [theory] itself is that it can never be "proven", it can only be "disproved".
So, my point is: that it's the best explanation for something "we don't know about". The latter of that statement being the issue.
As for the God & Trinity itself? Some theories claim that the hand of God is holding the Universe in place!
Whats the difference if they are both theories? Their POV, and status in the scientific community?!
Just think IF Louis Pasture would've been a physicist! You might be calling Gravity....well...maybe not!
How do you get your teeth so white! Probably not a coffee drinker!
