maybe.
You first need a scientific definition to understand the "what" of God and his/its relation to man.
With this understanding their "may" be a way to tie mathematical equations better together.
For instance, IF the math we have now is true, yet missing a key component ( such as a ball's path being a three second launch off the ground starting at T=0, yet on the return path you accrue a negative number because you didn't have the ground in the return eqation) Then you may build years of study and math explaining dynamics by that math and waste years of potential growth because of an overlooked variable.
If God IS and IS in a physical and real sense, then its a definite variable That should not be overlooked.
Of course I'm adding much in speculation, though its True to speculation, we first must examine the truth of what we DO know to further support or refute current theory as we continue to grow in knoledge of our existence and what we exist in.
We have alot more data now, overwhelming data piling in. I believe we are behind in examining that data because of breakdowns in communications between the sciences. My opinion of course.
Way to go on obfuscating the matter by interjecting a bunch of conjectures to answer a question that requires essentially a yes or no answer.

Don't beat around the bush.
