Why do you not believe in the concept of a God?

RE: Why do you not believe in the concept of a God?
If we're being asked whether we believe in the concept of god, described as a bunch of stories we aren't meant to take literally, aren't we being asked whether we believe in metaphors, similes, parables.......?

Sure. I think that creative storytelling exists, and that people find all sorts of utility in it when they set out to describe the human condition. That is how we ended up with gods, after all.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
