Enough of this crap, I want to hear directly from god

The empty set of worlds who came ex nihilo can have any property, among which that human children tend to believe. Therefore I don't think you can explain away some godly imprint within us with this kind of reasoning.

The cause of the universe, and its exact nature are unknown.  There might not even be a cause.

Logical arguments for the existence of a "first cause" all fail.  But even if there were, why would it be anything like the gods that humans have invented?

Arguing that belief in gods is somehow evidence that gods have created us to believe in them, is just stupid.
