The replies come in saying, basically, don't be silly; of course Ceiling Cat doesn't hold up the sky, and why must it be a 'who'. I respond by saying "very well, if you think Ceiling Cat doesn't hold up the sky, give your reasoning why it must be Godzilla."
That, in a nutshell, is why we are saying the question is malformed - because, apart from maybe one vote given ironically, nobody is saying with any seriousness that it must be man governing human life etc instead of a god. Indeed, since the OP is trying to make the case that it has to be a god doing this stuff - since quite obviously it can't be a man - then we would all, I'm sure, be very interested to see the reasons and evidence to support that, instead of the fallacy of the excluded middle.
I did not ask who holds up the sky. I noticed every atheist out there is trying to sound smart or something, it leads em to winded up posts that lead em nowhere.
Here is a question for you genius, having being put much more simpler.
If there is no God, then, who governs your life and, in general, the whole order of things in your life?
