No explanation is better than one which is unfalsifiable, which makes no predictions, which depends on arguments from incredulity, which posits a being whose characteristics are unlike anything we've ever seen before, which makes fanciful and clearly untrue claims about the answering of prayers and the performance of miracles and which is basically one massive shrug of the shoulders when it comes to the big questions of our existence.
