I see your points, OP and agree with most.
The "idea" of a god is not at all preposterous. What IS preposterous is revolving one's life around an invisible being, worshipping an invisible being, judging others because you believe this is what your invisible deity would request of you, and giving money to causes that "uphold" your invisible deity when you could be applying it to better use. (I could go on!
)
No one knows with certainty if a god exists or doesn't. But to live life pretending you know one exists and judging others who don't buy into your fantasy, is the problem.
