Science-types are almost all alike. Explain the universe any possible way, except for the obvious one. God.

A theory that the Universe was created by a group of muskrats playing rock-paper-scissors is preferable to being humble enough to admit the existence of a Creator. Because that would mean the scientists aren't the smartest thing in the universe. And that would, evidently, take all the fun out of being a science-creep.

Do you mind me asking, how much science have you had?

You're on the wrong track. Religion and Science ask DIFFERENT questions. Religion, at its' core, asks the question "Why ???". Science, OTOH, is concerned with the question "How ???". . . .

If God were truly obvious, it wouldn't have been necessary for mankind to invent so very many of them.

Computational systems we know of are designed and built. The universe is one too,
which would be interesting to understand the specifics of.

Several hundred years ago when scientists were trying to understand HOW the universe worked, they felt that they were seeing and glorifying God throughtout the universe. Today, scientists try to explain HOW the universe works to glorify THEMSELVES! (Scientist and philosphers will also not be able to ever discover WHY the universe is: it is beyond their human limits.

Not quite … Scientists are only trying to understand how God did it.
