I do not need smart sounding things to invalidate your nonsensical beliefs. Your beliefs invalidate themselves.

Plenty of smart and educated people believe in god, unfortunately. Besides, just because many people believe something to be true without any evidence to support their beliefs does not validate those beliefs.

I was once a genuine theist, so I know precisely what you and other theists have experienced. It can be summed up in one word: delusion.
