Maybe someone addressed this - I really kind of only scanned through this thread.
According to Peter Higgs, the fellow who coined the term "god particle" really wanted to call the missing boson "that godd***n particle" because of the difficulty finding it.
Evidence of it should complete the Standard Model of physics, and doesn't really have anything to do with theology.

Also, even if everyone else in the world were wrong about everything, always, this wouldn't mean that there was a god.
That is to say, you seemed to place some importance on someone else having made wild conjecture.

An Eagle was soaring through the air when suddenly it heard the whizz of an Arrow, and felt itself wounded to death. Slowly it fluttered down to the earth, with its life-blood pouring out of it. Looking down upon the Arrow with which it had been pierced, it found that the shaft of the Arrow had been feathered with one of its own plumes. "Alas!" it cried, as it died,
"We often give our enemies the means for our own destruction."
