Your beliefs may be absolutely true, but, per the principle of parsimony, I reject all of them. Planets and stars may move due to invisible angels who are pushing them, with the equations of Einstein and Newton being their "rulebook" with the subtle chaotic behavior in all celestial motion being postulated as evidence of "angelic consciousness". Even if such is true, it's unnecessary to believe, as such a proposition is one of an infinite number of nonverifiable, nonfalsifiable beliefs.
I wasn't advocating for angelic consciousness, but merely for a personal cause of the universe.
Feel free to ridiculize my position if that makes you feel better.

God, being God, is under no obligation to meet your demands, or your biased requirements of how he should reveal Himself.

I am not interested in gathering converts. It's enough for me that I proved how everyone here doesn't understand a lick about modern science, and about the fact that it's completely silent on the questions that theology attempts to answer. You are nothing but a naive advocate for scientism, you think making the world intelligible dispenses with the need of a creator. How stupid.

Poly was proven to be wrong more than once already. But I suspect unmotivated laymen didn't notice that .
Yeah, I posted this before in this thread and you never replied to it, but, most scientists are atheistic:

As are most philosophers:

But, you know more than anyone else, apparently?
