English is not my first language, but I take pride in my near-perfect grammar and perfect spelling. Your wording inferred that the deity had been created by goat herders (which isn't far from the truth), that you were a 7.1 for the god created by said goat herders, and also inferred that you were a 7.1 for (the existence of) their believers. The "their" made all the difference, as it made the connection between believers and the goat herders, rather than believers and their respective deity. To me, that sounded like you were saying that you didn't believe in the people who believed in goat herders. It could also be interpreted as you saying that the believers in the goat herders were the ones who created the deity, along with the goat herders themselves.
Anyway, even if my explanation is wrong and there was no possible way anyone else would've picked up on my "secondary" interpretation, my comment was in jest. I was fairly certain that the smiley would've hinted at that.
The truth is absolute. Life forms are specks of specks (...) of specks of dust in the universe.
Why settle for normal, when you can be so much more? Why settle for something, when you can have everything?
