Information

Do you think Information will lead towards God?
I think it will. I think the more we learn the more we require less proof of His existance.

I think the opposite. The more we learn the less of God there is.

i think there is a creator... but not the way anyone on this earth portrays it

There is already ironclad proof of God's existence. It's called "creation".

Now all you have to do is prove that there was a creation. Good luck, because you will need it.

It's called 'agnostic theism', if I'm not mistaken.

But my belief leans more to 'fideism' -- that faith brings about the good in people.

Do you mean what, eg, Abraham encountered, which in time inspired that metaphor? Yes. I believe that information, specifically self-knowledge through attention training, will reveal the transcendent Source of all things. It may take a few lifetimes, though...

What if we eventually find the Source of All Things, then someone or groups of people will fight to acquire/contain said power for personal gain?
There'd be, like, another World War.

As for fighting over "God": this has been one of Humanity's favorite pasttimes for several centuries.

well unless a explosion of nothing brings about everything we have proof

The big bang says nothing about what happened before. There is a very good chance that the big bang was not a creation, but instead a change.

You should read the book The Life of the Cosmos by Lee Smolin. He presents an integrating theory about what happened before the big bang.

"A scientific theory is a well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world, based on a body of facts that have been repeatedly confirmed through observation and experiment. Such fact-supported theories are not "guesses" but reliable accounts of the real world."

All I am telling you is if you are going to claim a creation, then you must first prove there was a creation. I was just showing you how there could be other possibilities.

The burden of proof is on you.
