What if future theorists observed that a spiritual absolute would necessarily be the essence of sentience, from which life rises, not an ideal of wisdom and judgement, from which it fell? The fact we are aware, than the details of which we are aware.

We don't exactly understand consciousness in the first place, so accepting it as a elemental fact, an axiom, so to speak, would throw the ball back in the court of the monotheists, as to why life requires an all-knowing deity.

Given knowledge is a process of exploration, that circulates through countless cycles of expansion and consolidation, then having to loop back and take into account the factors ignored the prior times. Not a destination.

The problem science has yet to fully address is that being reductive, its descriptions are not actually explanations.

For example, epicycles were brilliant math, as a description of our view of the cosmos, but the crysalline spheres were lousy physics, as explanation. Yet much of modern science views math as foundational, rather than descriptive. The territory, not just the map.

If you distill the body down to its most basic forms, it is the skeleton, not the seed. Math is a conceptual skeleton, not the seed from which these forms grow.

The monotheistic assumption of ideal wisdom and judgement as source, rather than conceptual framework, makes the same mistake.

Maybe both science and religion are a long way from finished.
