God's Value Nonexistent?

By 'god' you mean 'revelation', and by 'revelation' I mean either a mental disorder, shocking self delusion, or just plain making it up. I mean, how can the church decide which books are canonical, and which aren't? How can they admit that some are made up and still defend others?

Using my above definition of 'getting answers from god', then yeah.

If you don't, there is no real reason to actually state questions about something that you do not believe in to yourself.
Or to others, as a matter of fact.

They believe in it, so it matters to them. We are discussing a concept, but do not think it is real. The theists do think it is real, that is the difference. For us it's "if a god existed, what value would he have, and how would he get it?" The theistic version would simply omit the if. (I know the sentence would be unweildy, but you know what I mean)
