Ok JP,
What I meant by validate was that it makes people who already believe in god feel they have an intelligent reason for their belief. I would refute your beliefs by saying that morality, theology, psychology, religion, law, politics, science, economics, democracy, socialism, in fact all things relating to ways of measuring reality are in fact subjective constructs of the human mind. Yes, even science, which really only considers any conclusion as a subjective approximation of understanding reality.
1) Humans can't comprehend things objectively
2) All constructs of the human mind are inherently subjective because (1)
3) Therefore there is no way to establish anything as objectively real
