"Alas, no. Not for scientists. You have a wonderful learning experience ahead of you, my novice friend."

Ah, life is a wonderful learning experience, but I suspect you define a scientist as someone who closes their minds to many possibilities.

If a person is willing to consider the possibility that God is, he can then examine the evidence for that possibility. And if he does so, he is very likely IMHO to determine that God not only is, but He has a lot of answers to our questions.

It is written that the beginning of wisdom is the fear of God. To you that statement is as unscientific as it can be. To me, that is a theory, a hypothesis that is has been tested and proven so often that it is accepted as a universal law.

On the contrary, that's what the Young-Earth-Creationists do - rejecting all evidence, questioning the obvious, inserting impossible (non)explanations. Just like you do.

Yes, Krishna answers our questions, but, since he is such a tricky god, are they the correct answers?

Your conceit about a particular god, a particular religion, or a particular sect is neither unique nor informative. At this point, it's just boring.
