Quote:If everyone got a god broadcast into their minds every morning would you all nitpick and be so dogmatic about it? If it did happen I would have to accept that as plausible positive evidence.

Absolutely I would. I can think of too many ways one might duplicate many of God's supposed powers with sufficiently advanced technology. And I am not going to worship anybody just because he has better toys than I do. Someone from the Middle Ages might think I am God, or something close to it, because of the things I could do with access to modern technology.

Why shouldn't we be skeptical?
