Ah yes, as if a god would know less about the universe it created than Einstein. This is some weird sciencier than thou comic and this sort of sentiment does nothing but drive wedges between people, best to avoid that
Actually, it is religion which drives that wedge, not science. Science creates no wedges at all and is purely inclusive; the religious people who deny repeatable and verifiable fact-based evidence are willingly excluding themselves, not being wedged away.
Science is waiting and ready to receive any repeatable and verifiable factual evidence that supports religious claims.
EDIT: lol would the downvoters like to explain what they believe is wrong with my comment?
Eh, I have no problem characterizing “god” as a sort of Willy Wonka-esque maniac who might not necessarily"do things" or design systems based on an expected outcome.
The “why not?” or “just because” philosophy feels appropriate for “divine” characters like Loki and Sheogorath. They’re playing by their own rules, and they’re comfortable doing that because theoretically they are both the unstoppable force and the immovable object.
Could God create a puzzle so difficult that not even he can solve it? Who knows! But I think if I were God I’d want to try and see what happens.
Huh, I figured it was someone who was mocking Einstein for overthinking things when God was just trying to show him the neat thing he made. Don’t recognize the artist to know either way.

To paraphrase Bruce Schneier, any idiot can create a universe that he himself doesn’t understand.

Definitely mocking Einstein.
I especially like this one 😄
…dumb me was translating the comics by hand, without realising that the original artist had an English version of them.
why would they draw god as though his brain had been scooped out by a big spoon
