Is Ethan Siegel’s Big Bang and Parallel Universes nonsense a response to Steve Meyer?

Jerry Coyne vs Ross Douthat on science-based belief in God
Coyne makes a virtue of the fact that he finds typical, widespread points of view hard to comprehend. Uncommon Descent to Jerry Coyne: Come in Coyne, are you reading us?: Buckle that seatbelt, man! This is the BIG roller coaster, Flyin’ Annie. Not the little ones you are used to. Over and out.
At Evolution News: Twilight of the Godless Universe
If so, fashionable atheists must all just want to kill Meyer for busting up a sweet faith-and-science racket. Whatever any establishment figure with a PhD in science wants to call science is science and obedient religion profs just bumble along, glad to be noticed. Actually, with all the stuff we have discovered that does not confirm just what everyone thinks, it’s a pretty decrepit racket now.
Jordan Peterson’s reflections on Twitter on reading Steve Meyer’s Return of the God Hypothesis
Jordan, if you believe Meyer is right or even partways right or is making a good case, stand your ground. You have already faced some of the most incomprehensibly vicious mobs that Cancel Culture has spewed and you are still standing. Follow the evidence, not the crybullies. You, of all people, can afford to and it would do immense good.
Humanist philosopher James Croft goes after Steve Meyer’s Return of God Hypothesis
But in an interesting, traditional way (no Cancel Culture, no weirdness, no hysterics).
Fish fins, Christian evolutionism, and the “things that just don’t change, come what may”

Professional skeptic Michael Shermer takes on Stephen C. Meyer and his Return of God Hypothesis
In an age when the Raging Woke parasitize the world of ideas, banning everyone from Frank Turek through Richard Dawkins from public life (when not out setting fires and assaulting the non-Woke), it is worth nothing that Shermer’s 2020 book Giving the Devil His Due, is a defense of intellectual freedom.

At Mind Matters News: Why believe atheists about God?
Logic and evidence both point to the existence of God, whatever atheists may think: Michael Egnor addresses three arguments in Steve Meyer’s new book, The Return of the God Hypothesis.
Asked of Steve Meyer: If humans are so important to God, why did they take so long to develop?
In the book, Meyer argues from three scientific discoveries to an inference to a personal God. If God is the creator, Keating wants to know, why was He so patient as to wait billions of years, during which not much that was very interesting happened, for the fulfillment of His purpose in initiating the universe to begin with?
Free excerpt from Steve Meyer’s new book, Return of the God Hypothesis
Meyer: I was not surprised to hear outspoken atheists or scientific materialists explaining why they doubted the existence of God. What shocked me was the persuasive talks by other leading scientists who thought that recent discoveries in their own fields had decidedly theistic implications.
Steve Meyer’s talk at the Dallas Science and Faith Conference
