Simple question, one I rarely get a satisfactory answer to:
Why should I care about any sort of God?
Any sensible definition doesn't preclude a computer programmer in a parent dimension, by the way. I don't understand the compulsion to worship it or to "talk" to it with no idea whether or not the messages are being received by it. The idea that it plans to manifest us in this parent reality after death is absurd, quite honestly. It's much more reasonable to assume it has no idea we are here at all, let alone self-aware.
I don't deny that the concept of God exists, as a concept. It's when you try and move it into reality that you will always fail. It's unfalsifiable at best; incoherent at worst.
