Q: do you, Christian, claim that God exists, rather than you believe that he exists?

But in a sense if God were only celebrated for creating the world you experience, for providing you the foundation for your conscious perspective, in a sense He has created everything and you should be duly grateful. Whatever we call it that makes what we experience possible is truly an amazing thing and it isn't anything we can directly take credit for ourselves. So much goes on below the surface to make us possible.

You're dead right. Ultimately it's all in our heads if you look at it that way. Same as all experience.

I would. That's how I see it, and how I think Prof Dawkins used it, and why I also use it, thanks to his usage.
