I deal first with theoretical physics because it is the foundational science of mechanical materialism. When it is discarded then progress will again be possible in analyzing the operation of a universe that produces life and intelligence.

Cosmology is not the application of theoretical physics to the observation of the universe - it is the formulation of ideas about the universe using language from many different sciences.

I did not try to explain cosmology. I explained why theoretical physics is flawed right from the start.

As for the quote, well, you also fail to tell us what this "true nature of something" is, and what it is different from.

The only two properties that are experienced directly in this universe are intelligence and information. The nature of intelligence is intelligence. Intelligence cannot be created from non-intelligence. Lower intelligence cannot cause higher intelligence. What do you claim as the cause of intelligence? Everything else you think you know is the product of your intelligence. What is the cause of your intelligence?

And I know a scientific dogma when I see it.
