- God of the Gaps.
God of the Gaps! God of the Gaps! God of the Gaps!
Ya gotta lotta lotta gaps... more and more each year it seems.
Theories of the Universe, matter, time are losing credibility:
"Time might not exist " and we're starting to understand why"
The Trouble With "The Big Bang"
That we have no evidence for (or against) the Big Bang Event is the reason why physicists have a large number of different hypotheses for the beginning of our universe.
Besides the Big Bang Event, our universe could have been born out of a black hole; or it could have come about in a collision of higher-dimensional membranes; or it could have started as a big network in a non-geometric phase; or our universe could cycle through eons, as Roger Penrose has proposed.
The most popular idea now is that our universe was born out of a fluctuation in a quantum field. All these alternative ideas to the Big Bang Event are possible because we cannot look back in time far enough to tell them apart.
"The bombshell results that demand a new theory of the universe
Last year, our most detailed map of the universe yet suggested our understanding of dark energy has been wrong for decades. The shock result is reigniting the search for a better cosmic story"
"What's the Matter?
Are we consciousness? Are we matter? Are we conscious matter? As "facts" of physics blow apart our comfortable notions of what is "real" we are all exposed to a much broader interpretation of who we are and the limits that constrain us. Hold onto your hat because a quantum wind is blowing!"

I did ask... and I never said, "fully functional":
"AI Overview
Being born with both male and female genitalia is a variation of sex characteristics known as intersex, affecting about 1.7% of people.
It is not a disease, but rather a natural variation where anatomy, chromosomes, or hormones do not fit typical binary definitions. While individuals may have ambiguous genitalia, it is rare to have fully developed, functioning reproductive systems of both sexes."
