Again I aver that the "unreasonable effectiveness of math" is God's copyright notice on the cosmos.

You've also averred that science cannot answer the question of what the source is by studying the program - ie the answer to the question of the source of the program is not embedded in the program itself.

I don't think science has gone as far as it can go in asking and answering that and other questions. Nor do I believe it should throw up its hands and declare either "Nature did it!" or "God did it!"

When it goes beyond the "toolkit" of science and math - the question should be put in the hands of the theologians and philosophers.

Nevertheless, I'm very sincere in asserting that science - and math - should pursue the origin questions, all of them - as far as it can go.

Lack of curiosity is poisonous. Christians understand that God wants us to look and see. (Psalms 19:1-3, Romans 1:20)

My statement about God's copyright notice on the cosmos being the "unreasonable effectiveness of math" is my own speculation.
