If you think you have a theory of the world that explains everything, you really just have a theory that explains nothing.

Does god fall into this?
What I would say is that any theory that can't produce reliable predictions lacks any explanatory power at all.
Quantum mechanics would like to have a word
Okay, explain global population growth trends using quantum mechanics.
I don’t have the wording for this, but do these arguments even matter. Quantum mechanics gives the description of the world at the tiniest level that then leads to the dynamics of the world. I.e. the chaotic differential equations of population size
Yes. Because if you are going to claim a theory explains everything, I want to see everything explained to me. 🤷🏻♂️
