The next time you want to preach about rationality, try to ease up on the mumbo-jumbo. It hurts your case.
You may be right regarding liking God with nothing. However, if there's no God, then there cannot be something which is absurd. Because, upon analyzing the world, there must be a Unmoved Mover, First Cause, Uncaused Necessary Cause, Perfect Being, and Supremely Intelligent Being, which people call God.
Ah, St. Aquinas and his 5 ways of special pleading god into our imagination. How....13th century....or earlier. Didn't he base those arguments on Aristotelian philosophy?
