You can;t seem to make up your mind on what this vision of guidance is, or whether or not it must emanate from a god. While you figure that out..I have questions.
Why on earth would a god...send books? Why books to illiterate people, for that matter? Why would he require earthly princes to do his bidding?
In any case, if you -do- want to maintain the insistence that this "guidance" can only be divine......, then your argument is rendered even more inept.
If god, god, god god god..then...god?

Quote:1. It is better to sincerely try to objectively seek god than not.
2. If God doesn't exist, there is no reason to believe one can gain god.
3. If there is no reason to believe one can gain god, then it is not better to objectively seek god rather then not.
1, 3. If both these premises are true, we can conclude there is a reason to believe god. Call this premise (4).
4, 2 proves God exists if both premises are true.
If god, god, god god god..then...god?
