Still falls upon them to prove that god's existence.
If someone says the universe is god, fine, I can dig it. But given that the definition of a god has always been an intelligent entity of supernatural power and otherworldly presence, then such is what I shall always view it as. If someone calls a tree a god, it's still a tree to me, and a tree to the definition of the word. Someone wants to make subjective definitions on their own, fine, but it doesn't mean I have any intention of entertaining every last individual's fickle whims. Such a stance is likely to be viewed as me being an asshole. If so... Oh well.
