Odd that the theoretical God that he described is nothing like what bible thumpers here talk about.
The concept that most humans have of this vengeful God that can't wait to send people to hell if they break a rule, is the polar opposite of who God really is. Even Christians try to work their way to salvation. Even though a loving Father offered it as a gift.
Science isn't looking for that guy, they are looking for the one who said, "Let there be light."
