Is the Scientific Method really Scientific?
All methods are philosophical so must it be. Please

You have not presented a *theory*. You haven’t even presented a coherent hypothesis. You have presented a collection of vague ideas and rather fantastic claims.
If you want to actually present a *theory* that includes a changing gravitational constant, you would first have to describe *in detail* the effects on the dynamics of standard situations under your theory. For example, you could claim that the gravitational constant is decreasing over time: G=a-bt. Then, you could apply that to the gravitational force: F=(a-bt)Mm/r^2 and, with F=ma, see how that would affect the dynamics of, say, planetary orbits. This would allow you to give estimates (at least, maximum values) for your parameters a and b. In particular, the value of b would be significant.
Then, you could compare the results you get with the observations we have of galaxies that are, say, 200 million light years away. Since the dynamics would be quite different 200 million years ago (by your hypothesis), the differences in the dynamics of such galaxies should be quite clear. Have you done this? What were the results? How do you deal with the fact that a galaxy only 200 million light years away is a very close galaxy on the cosmic scale?
If you want to claim that the changing gravitational constant affects something like the speed of light, you will have to extend your basic theory to include such effects *and* test the results of such an extension.
By the way, to even get started on this program would take learning at least a bit of mathematics. Differential equations would get you in the door, but probably a bit of perturbation theory would also be required to give definite predictions. If you want to include a changing speed of light, you would also have to learn special and possibly general relativity and formulate the changes in those required under your program.
Have you done ANY of this? No.
So you do not have a theory.

“a changing gravitational constant”
Is it because it helps the humans to have some perception of the Ever-Eternal-God, His Oneness does not change, is ever-constant , yet His attributes change all the time, so other things created by Him always keep changing/moving/orbiting, cannot stop unless He commands them to stop, and they finish? Please
