Also, just bullshit. We’ve had polls here. Many more got say that the Abrahamic god, as defined in the Bible and by modern Christians, or similarly Sllah, do not exist. But when polled here most will say they do not know for sure on other, less well defined possible God’s.
That’s why the first response to the question of do you believe in god her is often, define god. Some are for sure bullshit, but some are unprovable and therefore cannot be disproved either, and the majority here admit that.
If you mean your specific personal notion of god? Yeah, maybe most do. But you don’t have a monopoly on defining god, though you seem to think otherwise.
Actually is not a question to have a monopoly Aro.
It is rather a question to reach Rome.
You know that old saying........all roads lead to Rome................to say that all paths or activities lead to the center of things.
To God in this case.
Atheists also try to go to Rome.
Atheists take much longer to get to Rome but at the end they too will get there.
They rely on intellect only so this preclude them from getting there fast but fast or slow they will get there anyway.
As soon as they will find futile to insist on the intellect they finally will change their attitude in favor for the real thing and God will be finally found.
Rome will be the same for everybody.
Nobody has the monopoly to God.
