Interesting subject and questions raised here.
However, as long as God is left out of the equation, the search will not result in a satisfactory answer, whether one believes in God or not. In science talk: If we are missing data, the the observation makes no sense. Or if something does not make sense, we are missing data.

I tend to see it from another angle, one that I believe compliments your initial point. It's this dissatisfaction you speak of that drives our species into the cosmos to seek out the answers to the unknown. Our curiosity demands it, logic dictates it. On this planet, godly dogma is numerous, abstract and unassured without blind leaps of faith that have often crumbled under the tests of time. These men have no need to seek answers, for they are already assured of their answers. And yet, their teams are numerous and that large black void of space continues to expand with her infinite questions on offer. No man can claim to have the answers to the gods or the cosmos with objective certainty yet. However, I think we should be praising the humans who are actually seeking the data and filling in the gaps to the best of our ability in the meantime.
I can agree generally with this statement.
Emphasis for me is in considering all available data and see which make sense. Occam's Razor Style.
BTW, it is a myth that Christianity, or the Bible for this matter, are anti-science. It's just the opposite. The book is full of scientific assertions, and one can only grasp it's true meaning when studying the book in it's original languages. Because it's not well understood, it is dismissed by the majority of researchers - and searchers.
Thanks for your article and reply.
