Theists, let's say an entity came to earth proclaiming to be god.
He tells us that he has taken human form because we like to see and speak with him on a level we can relate to.
He also changes into other forms at will but we prefer the human form ...
He also materialises Jesus next to him, complete with blood and crown of thorns...
(quite a handsome guy, and not very Arab looking ... The theists do not question the almighty)
He makes all these demands of us ...? Or else! What to do? We must comply....
Now, scientific instruments have been monitoring this phenomenon for a little while.
They are detecting an unknown type of energy transmission from "god" and another location in space.
Science has determined that it is more likely that this entity is an alien who has been studying our history and has an as yet unknown agenda.
Theists, will you be sceptical? Will you listen to science? Would you rather be fooled and comply "just in case"????
I'd say that most people aren't stupid, including all theists, and no-one likes to be scammed....I'd say that the vast majority of theists would concede that science is probably right since there is no other explanation for god to need other engery sources transmitting between him and elsewhere .....not the god we know, right?
My question is, if you're happy and relieved that science has helped us get to the truth in this example, why not trust it all the time? Science has not found any signs of any god, ever, and our universe seems to be exactly how one would look and act without divine intervention, so why not put some faith in science? It hasn't let you down yet.....

No God, No fear.
Know God, Know fear.
Know God, Know fear.
