Quick Poll - Do you believe in God?

[Angrboda]

To me though it just seems that the only useful path to take if discussing gods is verifying what is meant by them.  I can attach meaning but very rarely will it coincide with anyone else's meaning.  I assume gods are not literal beings but imagined beings which represent the projection of something deep in the mind.  

Aren't we all projections of someone else's imagination? Do you have a precise definition of who your wife is? Of who I am? Of other people on the forum? It's all projections with fuzzy boundaries. Communication depends on common understandings, but these understandings need not be all that precise. The boundaries that make up the description of an agent include some intangibles and imprecision. They are images in process. And I doubt many theists have thought about it as something abstract; to them it is just another universal, like 'chair' or 'concept'. We understand these things in the intuition first, and the forebrain second.
