A lot of people are uncomfortable with "I don't know". Which is sad, because that spurs investigation. If you say "god did it", then you're sorta done. No investigation needed. But, so far, every time that was given as an answer, someone else dug into it and figured out "no, it's really like this". Every time.

Right. There's no evidence for an omnipotent being dictating the flow of existence. Abandoning that demands of us an exploration of the genesis of experience.

First to mind is a recognition that organically evolving perception is at once parent to/product of boundless quanta negotiating infinite potential.

Implicit probabilities emerge as present experience; encompassing sensation, recognition, anticipation, expression and remembrance.

Our best bet is to optimize knowledge via careful – i.e., scientific – observation.
