So, why should I believe you are talking to the real god and not one of the many fictitious ones? In fact, why should I believe that *any* gods are real? Maybe they are *all* fictitious?
Lets assume for the sake of the argument lek's god does exist, how do we go about determining that his, is the one true god? How do we establish its uniqueness? (Like demonstrating something mathematically, like the old u that for all a in an algebraic group, there is only one u where a + u = a, but religion doesnt have the same formalities).
For the last part, I think someone said that religions can't all be true, but shirley,, they can all be false.
