Your "God", DSM, is a construct much like Huygens luminiferous aether, totally unnecessary. The same applied to Bohr's construct that electrons orbit the nucleus, which didn't fit the known and facts about atomic spectra.

In other words, after enough observations, constructs gave way to better theories. That happened to ID/creationism a long time ago.

'To be a sinner is to be 100% God-less.' Daffy Duck, you are 100% wrong. In the absence of god there is no such thing as sin. Ask any atheist. Sin is what props up religions: the concept of sin and forgiveness, as mediated through its clergy, is the source of power in the catholic church. The threat of punishment for sins and the lure of forgiveness is the core of the god business model. If 'sinners' were cast out of their congregations there would be no-one left.
