If he’s everywhere, then you’ve just destroyed your own gap argument.
It’s a sideline, though. A god who isn’t here or a god that’s everywhere in such a way as to not seem to be here is the practical equivalent of no god at all. In a thread about the benefits of religion.,. That’s interesting....because whatever benefit it provides, it’s clear that it does or doesn’t do so regardless of the presence or absence of a god, and the absence of such a god clearly wouldn’t bother believers who hold s position like your own in the first place.
