The language does become extremely silly.
Yeah, for any inconsistent claim, I'm happy to say that character can't exist as described. That covers most if not all of the popular gods I should think.
I have no problems saying there might have been a creator of some sort, the most likely scenario being simulation. It's the piling on of ridiculous stories that can't possibly be known that makes the whole thing laughable. The definition of God people give comes off more like a job description, ironically best fitting the simulation hypothesis actually.
I mean, for all I know, I could be a God. A simulation I have run before may have manifested somehow and have little AI creatures still living in it, all attempting to worship me and coming up with stories about me. I see people's attempts to "learn" about our God as the same level of stupidity as this.
People can't just leave it at "maybe there is a creator", they have to stick a wig and false glasses on it and call it their personal buddy.
