OK, I am slow. I know. But the first time I read that Cobb question I said the same thing as this time: Huh? Somebody want to explain to this idiot why that's an interesting question? I mean, I think it leaves the scientific atheist saying "Talk to me in 1000 years."

I'm not that literal about it. I simply take it to mean that, for all the carping about how smart we are and how much we know, we are still very dumb and know only about an inch of the million mile road of what there is to know.

As for the capability of "detecting God" with instruments, I think we're still trying to get a clear view of quarks and the far side of the universe and the moments before the Big Bang... so I think it will take awhile for those who cannot see the hand of creation infused into the world dimensional.

I'll accept that.

unless I missed something, since when does "detecting God" have anything to do with science? To me the God vs. science thing is apples and oranges; they have nothing to do with each other.

Really? Who do you think created science? Or the thought that thought of science? Or the science of thought? Hamsters?

Shit. I'll have to rush the publication of my book now. I thought the hamster thing was going to surprise everybody.
