Utter fantasy? To who? An atheist? Don't make me laugh. Of course an atheist would think it's "utter fantasy".

If you want to define God as "the best thing in my life" or "something that is watching over me" or "the voice in my head that tells me to do the right thing", then that is what God is to you.

It doesn't mean that an objective God exists, nor that it is objectively good.  You just imagine that that both are true, despite no evidence.  That's fine with me, but not fine FOR me.
