No justification from realism cuts through the bullshit you weave, because the theist perspective is equally realist.
If it's not specifically an eternal intelligent designer then I see no reason to call it God.
If your position is just as real as mine then why can you not demonstrate the truth of your claims? You are the one here who is set on the cause of the universe yet you have absolutely nothing to support your conclusion other than what occurs in your own mind and on the pages of ancient books.

The attributes of the Christian God are entirely made know through the bible. So to say he hasn't made it known is self contradictory. Either you call the biblical God 'God' or you call something not described in the bible 'God'.
All the bible gives us is what a lose collection of ancient people thought was god, even assuming he does exist, there is nothing to discern the accuracy of the Bible as being more representative of what this god's nature might be compared to any other religious texts or fable.
