It's an accomodationist's god, that is not a god at all in any way except by the insistence of those who call it a god to frame it as such. A functionally non-existent creature should deserve some measure of uncertainty, I think not. In any case, you've made a claim for the deist god (it's impossible to postualte a god without attaching a claim btw, try it). Show us the skyhook in the big bang or else we're just engaging in flights of fanciful imagination.
A deist god is a god.Where is a god defined as only a personal god? You can define it to be not a god if you want but that is the only way you can be 100% certain it doesn't exist. If you define a theist god as a god (which should be obvious), then you can't dismiss it with 100% certainty. Now why the fuck do you think I made a claim for any god? I was answering your fucking stupid question.
