Some things being above reason
#23
RE: Some things being above reason
I'll go so far as to admit that the vast majority of people have a somewhat superstitious nature. There are also still gaps in our knowledge, despite the milestones we've crossed in understanding the universe.

This does not translate into evidence of some creator deity. Certainly not a theistic god that cares about how much you worship him. Even if we all agreed there had to be a creator, that will only get you as far as deism, or pantheism.
Poe's Law: "Without a winking smiley or other blatant display of humor, it is impossible to create a parody of Fundamentalism that SOMEONE won't mistake for the real thing."

Good video to watch, if you want to know how common the Jesus story really is.
