When we are confronted with a perplexing issue in science, how does the explanation "God did it" advance human knowledge?
Is it not an answer that essentially squelches further investigation? If not, then why?
I can't see how anyone would continue investigation after that answer unless they followed it with, "well let's find out how God did it." In that instance, how is that practically different than someone who denies God's influence on a scientific matter and investigates it? At best, it seems like an unnecessary step to include God.
Thoughts?
