The argument from morality is scary.

Visibility depends on the tool you are using. That which is invisible to the magifying glass can be seen quite clearly by a microscope. You cant see multiverses in a pair of binoculars. Dark matter is all around us but I cant see it. :-(
If you used a fishing nett that only ever caught sharks you would conclude that there is no evidence for minnows or plankton. But invisible is NOT the same as non-existent.

Yep. Very elegant and convenient. Think Occam. The God Conclusion has great explanatory power.
Of course you might be happy to remain ignorant of why questions but the vast majority of humans who want answers from science are searching for both the What and the Why of reality.

You just made two truth claims using words that science cant empirically define. Science cant answer what religion is. Science cant assert its own universality.
Science arises from the minds of humans - since when are human primates universal/eternal/transcendent?

Nope. Thats not true. I do not reject all other theism.
