This is the understood position of any intellectual.
My question to theists is, how can it not be recognized that man has created god?
We already understand and accept that certain concepts not proven to exist have been created by the imagination of men, concepts that still thrive to this day.
Why is god not accepted among the same category? Is it too soon in history? Certainly, the belief in the monotheistic christian god has surpassed any other myths by way of time in which the belief was held as true.
Man's imagination is the one greatest tool he possesses. If he uses it for non-religious means, he changes the world toward progression. What progression other than self-delusion does imaginative religion serve other than to divide?
I could understand if there was one single religion, but the imagination of man proves that a single religion is impossible.
No one man thinks the same, and that is automatically the folly of erroneously attempting to assert the same belief on everyone.
Every man thinks differently, and that is precisely why there are so many different religions having been created by men. Each man created a religion because he thought he had the answer that trumped what already existed as concepts taken too seriously.
To place "faith" in a belief without any evidence toward it being genuine is the very definition of folly.
