Quote:We still lack the means to gain information about the world we live in.
No, we have the means. Most people call it 'scientific inquiry'.
Quote:We still have no idea where it came from.
On the contrary, we have a lot of ideas as to where the world came from. These are called 'scientific theories'. See reply immediately preceding.
Quote:So why are we so different from ancient people.
Flush toilets and antibiotics.
Quote:People still believe in God, but we are smart enough to know that God is not the sun.
And some of us are smart enough to know that God is not some megalomaniacal savage who would sacrifice his own son in order to clean up the fuck up that he himself made.
Quote:In fact more believe in God than don't.
lol, so? Preponderance of belief is no indication that that said believe is valid or true.
Quote:Could that mean that we do have an indication that there is a God?
No. More Western five year olds believe in Father Christmas than don't believe in him. This doesn't indicate that there is a Father Christmas.
Quote:Maybe you are just lacking what most people possess and are at a disadvantage because you are unable to detect God.
And maybe - just maybe - you are suffering from a delusion that allows you to detect things that aren't there.
