Don't know what?
Maybe that's why I'm asking questions.

More whataboutism. Also based on a false premise. No reason to take this seriously as an objection. As far as the example, you are welcome to dispute it if you disagree.

Define god.
From the Merriam Webster Dictionary (source linked)
God - capitalized : the supreme or ultimate reality: such as
a : the Being perfect in power, wisdom, and goodness who is worshipped as creator and ruler of the universe
b Christian Science : the incorporeal divine Principle ruling over all as eternal Spirit : infinite Mind
___
There are also three other definitions from this dictionary. For the sake of discussion, I would propose 1a.
OK, so that is (sort of) a definition. Why would anyone think such a being exists? For that matter, how is 'perfection' defined in this context? What scale is used?
