"Now, yes I find something divine, something wonderful, in the beauty of the world. Is that unacceptable for you as a scientist?"

Arse about face I'm afraid, Joe. Science, unendingly, keeps us looking towards better explanations. That search is what fully opens you to seeing the true beauty and "divine" nature of what is really real. Belief in a creator gives you an "explanation" that can't itself be explained, ever (you made it that way, quite deliberately). You've got your answer and you can stop looking. My dad stands outside his house, waving his arms in the air, seeing the trees swaying and feeling the warm sun and breeze on his face and says, what more evidence than THIS do you need for God! My dad's stopped looking, stopped asking. He's found an answer, the wrong answer. Not the wrong answer for him, but still, objectively, the wrong answer. As he's 95 I cut him some slack these days. If there really is a God it's a good bet that he expects us to use all the resources of imagination and intellect he gave us to the full. He'd be grievously insulted to think that huge sections of humanity are too easily satisfied with "answers" that aren't answers at all.
