I submit that until you show there is no deific involvement required for the conservation of the laws of nature, it follows you cannot credibly claim the results of the experiment indicate no deific involvement.
If A is a requirement of B and B is a requirement of C, then A is a requirement of C.
A = Deific Involvement
B = Conserved Laws of nature
C = Results of the Experiment.
Until you show A is or is not a requirement of B, you can't say anything about whether C requires or does not require A. Your claim has no foundation.
Do we also have to prove no leprechaun involvement? Sprite involvement? Pixie involvement?
No, Heywood, that is not the way it works.
The way it works is you make a claim and then the burden of proof is on you to support that claim. For some reason you think atheists are immune to having a burden of proof....but they are not. Stimbo made a claim and the argument above shows he did not satisfy the burden of proof of substantiating his claim.
