What if Zeus were to hit the camera with a thunderbolt? Then you wouldn't need batteries.

In my understanding of methodological naturalism, there is never final, absolute proof of any specific hypothesis, only evidence supporting or failing to support it.
So when I consider the hypothesis of a god who manifested, one who wrestled and walked with forefathers, one who threw down walls and split oceans, one who offers to fulfill sincere prayers of the devout, I find the evidence to support that hypothesis lacking.

No batteries in the camera as of yesterday when I left town.
Let me check the house camera a minute....can't tell...insufficient resolution.

So how, exactly, does God know that She's NOT a brain in a vat? Huh

And better still, quit trying to insert those beliefs into to legal, social, and cultural dialogue.
