Hi Chad, My main assertions are simply the following:
(1) There are objective "this life" personal advantages associated with theism, as opposed to atheism, in terms of mental and physical well-being, including longevity.
(2) Therefore, it is not irrational for a present day non-theist to determine if it's possible for he/she to morph into a theist.
(3) Theism is perfectly compatible with state of the art knowledge and theory, relating to physical cosmology, without the need to invoke mysticism or magic.
The rest is mainly responding to the comments of others, with a bit of self-indulgent bloviating.
Cheers!
