The general, well established tendency of children to think teleologically could be a cultural or behavioral tick entirely unrelated to whether there is any purpose in natural phenomena, let alone whether or not there is any god in the universe. It very often is. Kids come up with all sorts of what-fors that describe no credible view of reality. Or, that same tendency could be on account of an accurate perception by the child of a natural teleology which they observe and is present.
Let me ask you an equivalent question. Did you know that we take shits? Even children take shits. How do you explain that, if there's no Shit God?
I say that's a brain at play. I say that maybe they think that way because things are that way. I say they sometimes imagine shit. I say they struggle with difficult concepts even when they aren;t imagining shit. You say no, none of that is the explanation....gotta be an all powerful magician. None of this stuff, about people doing something, explains why people do something. Nothing less than the author of creation is to blame for whatever it is kids do, or think, or imagine. All powerful magician is a more likely explanation for why kids do something..than any fact about kids or what they do or why.
I think that you're doing a disservice to god, again.
If what you're telling us, above, is that you can think of no satisfying explanation for absolutely anything, then that's too bad, I guess you'll have to be stuck with no satisfying explanation for anything, plugging that gap in your own knowledge with the same fairies that children to invent to explain how chickens came to be for laying eggs.

Quote:Regardless of whether their manufacturer exists or not, their toothed parts beautifully fit each other allow rotation,yes...exactly this, yes, and in a world without Shit God, people still take shits. Similarly, in a world without your god, children have a general, well established tendency to ascribe purpose to natural phenomena.
In a world without gears manufacturers, gears will still transmit torque...............
