What if god never existed at all and early man concocted him from the imagination for the sake of comfort during a time of overwhelming uncertainty?
Of course, you have obviously concluded something to the contrary of this. But doesn't this seem like a real possibility?

It is definitely a real life possibility. However, based on my observations and based on what I know and what makes logical sense to me, I have concluded that there is a stronger real life possibility that God does exist. Faith and hope fill in the rest to make my beliefs as strong as they are.
This is always an ongoing thing, though. If somehow the truth guided me the opposite direction, I would certainly reevaluate my current beliefs.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
