Which is why so many modern people, uncomfortable with just admitting they don't know, make up an answer and pretend it's true, only now they have the grand old traditions of their forefathers in ignorance to lend fallacious credence to those old claims. Haven't you been paying attention?
Quote: So why are we so different from ancient people. People still believe in God, but we are smart enough to know that God is not the sun.
You ask why we're so different, and then answer that question in the very next sentence: we're better at gaining information about the world than they were. We have established methods for doing so that were unavailable to them, and none of those methods have borne out any god claims.
Quote: In fact more believe in God than don't. Could that mean that we do have an indication that there is a God? Maybe you are just lacking what most people possess and are at a disadvantage because you are unable to detect God.
Unless you can demonstrate that god sense, I'm more likely to just peg it on the fallacious logic that we can actually demonstrate to exist.
More importantly, your god sense isn't universal, in that all over the world, it's a different god. People do not believe in the same god everywhere, and somehow, the god they believe in is usually the one they were brought up to believe in.
It's almost like there is no god sense, and you're just manufacturing an excuse to keep believing out of nothing...
