Rayaan, would it be terribly impolite of me to ask if your belief in God is in a real supernatural being? For me personally, although I'm an altar boy, I can't accept in my head a supernatural being. I think of God as a metaphor for goodness but he (although we use a personal pronoun and that's purely language), does not exist as an entity any more than goodness exists as an entity.
