This might surprise you....but there was a time in my life when I thought God did not exist.
It doesn't surprise me, and I'm not sure what point you're trying to make with that.

What I can be confident about is that whatever changed your mind about the existence of God, it has nothing to do with these arguments you're presenting. They are rationalizations.

Am I right?

Because as I've said many times, this argument doesn't even get you to Deism, unless you consider yourself a god when you play Minecraft.

And you seem to want to assign more to this creator and other reality than just "something somewhere else". If you don't, then that's cool, but I don't know why it matters in the slightest if it is true or not.
