Since you finally voice a thought of your own, I'm gonna answer that from my pedrsepctive. Most of us started with the presupposition that god does exist and came to the conclusion, he doesn't. At least not in the scripted form. I can only speak for me of course, but the christian construct, as well as any other god concept I know of, is entirely human. Kind of a superhero or supervillain. Depends on the perspective you take on what is written in the holy books.l
