What's more apparent is that you have a hole in your understanding of reality, and you've taken it upon yourself to fill that hole with God.
Whether or not the hole is God shaped seems to be irrelevent to you, as you seem to have no problem forcing it in, even when it doesn't fit.

First you would have to Seek the person before you could possibly Knock on his door and Ask. How else could you even know that the person exists or where his door is? In other words, it's that favourite little con trick of the neo-fundy: presuppositionalism, making its umpteenth showing in this thread alone.
Indeed, but what motivates one to seek that which has no sign of existing in the first place?
Ask/ (Who or What exactly?)
/Seek/ (Why, and Seek what?)
/Knock (What the fuck are you talking about?)
The whole concept is intellectually bankrupt.
Good grief - is that what it means? I wasn't sure and I didn't feeling comfortable a/s/king.
Actually I am quite relieved. Listening to some of the theists on here I assumed is meant:
Aim the Gun.
Squeeze the trigger.
Kill the atheist.
You know - in the best traditions of Christianity....
