Try logic. Squint real hard, stand on your head, slap your palm against your noggin a few times. . . really try hard to get it.
If there are thousands of different gods that people strongly believe in, then what's the most likely position?
1) All those other idiots are mislead, and they don't know the One True God™. Luckily, I was born in the right time and place to have heard about the actual God Who Exists and Isn't Made Up™.
2) Wait. . . all those billions of others think each other's God is made up. I think theirs is made up. They think mine is made up. So clearly one's cultural beliefs, one's religious experiences or feelings, and one's logical attempts to justify them cannot establish the truth of a religion. I will need actual evidence beyond wishy-thinking to prove my points.
