Its not a feeling, its an opinion based on facts, data and observation. I have an opinion that OJ Simpson murdered two people. I don't have a feeling he did it I have a belief based on the available evidence. I can't be sure he did...no one can.

Um no sorry. The feeling of a god existing is you wanting to have a super hero. No god claim was around 200,000 years ago, nor 4 billion years ago nor 13 billion years ago, and when our planet dies there will be no record of any life on this planet or our species or the gods we invented.

We have evidence of OJ and his victims existing, there is absolutely no evidence of a god outside the the evidence humans make up god claims.

Pick a god you know does not exist you have heard claimed before, take that god and replace the one you currently hold in this argument with one you rightfully reject and see if this logic still works.

Does Allah work as the inventor and we are the product?
Does Yahweh work as the inventor and we are the product?
Does Vishnu work for you as the inventor and we are the product?

I think it makes much more sense that humans invent gods because they like the idea of having a hero.
