I appreciate you thoughts, but there is a seismic difference between god/energy/consciousness and any of your examples, Tony. I'll use dark matter to illustrate.
It is true that we don't know much about dark matter. In fact, we could be so mistaken about it that we are attributing things to dark matter that are caused by something else entirely.
However, despite this, the effects of dark matter (or whatever) manifest in actual, testable results within the material we do see. We witness astrological bodies move in accord with its gravitational force and we see how larger clumps bend light that passes through. Whether this is caused specifically by dark mater is immaterial, either way something is causing phenomena that the stuff we see wouldn't do alone.
You might say that science postulating dark matter as a result of this information is the same as what you are doing... but you would be wrong.
You see, we can test for the presence of dark matter. The behavior of regular matter tells us whether dark matter is there, but more importantly,
it tells us if dark matter is not there. We also have viable mathematical models that account for dark matter. In fact, "account for" is putting it too mildly. The truth is that dark matter resolves virtually all issues with gravitational theory.... at least until we get to the quantum level.
For god/universal consciousness to be considered on the level of your examples, a mathematical framework would need to be provided, along with tests that could generate falsifiable results. Not only are neither of these the case, as human knowledge has expanded, god has receded further into the shadows specifically to avoid such testability.
Until this changes, appealing to gaps in knowledge is nothing more than an argument from ignorance fallacy. There are an infinite number of things that cannot be ruled out, what you need to do is give a reason to rule god
in.
BTW, coincidentally, I was listening to this when I stumbled upon your comment. I think you might find it intriguing.
