Lawrence Krauss Preaches Scientism

It seems to me that someone should explain to Lawrence Krauss that having a theory of everything, still doesn't exist, but most importantly that having an overall rational basis for the universe actually works in favor of there being a rational causing agent. He thinks that the universe can be explained as an accident, one where all the puzzle parts just happened to fit together with precision. And he doesn't ask the question, "whence the Higgs field?" Nor does he ask, "what the heck is gravity anyway?"

Always jumping to the defense of scientism, Krauss is notorious for accentuation of the positive to degrees well beyond the reach of science, and ignoring the negatives as if they don't exist.

Note: If you haven't seen the one minute video below, it's worth the minute it takes.

Hat tip to Anshuman Reddy for pointing me to the link!
