| There is a propensity for people to attribute to God what is beyond their limited conscious mind, which lies hidden from them in the deeper levels of the unconscious mind. | Mr. Moncrieff, My imaginary friend is GOD, Rayaan, Whateverist | 4 | 12.90% |
| God is an artifact of early man's attempt to understand the world around him. Essentially God is a mistake in understanding and that is all. | Bad Writer, Bob Kelso, Fromper, IATIA, Marsellus Wallace, Mr Greene, Rahul, StoryBook, xpastor | 9 | 29.03% |
