Even rocks. If gods were as demonstrable as a rock, or a grain of sand, there'd be no need for any of these silly gymnastics.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

Have you considered a panentheistic Infinite God that creates a finite space within itself, unfolding all latent qualities within that space as an ordered whole (a lawful universe), and remains outside finite that finite space as the original infinite union?

But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel contrary to the one we preached to you, let him be under a divine curse! Galatians 1:8

"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
