" ...I do not understand why Mike should use the idea of Brilliant Pebbles in response to a discussion of god."

Mike replies:
Your (Yanniru's) posts about Canavan and Brilliant Pebbles were not found using the search tool yesterday but I remembered reading them here on this forum which was called "God and Science" when you posted those. I am declaring that you had raised the topic on this forum yourself.
As for your other questions and comments: they proceed from the way you fielded this first topic.
