As an interesting aside, this brings up the question if disbelief can predate the proposal that said thing exists. If it can, that would mean that you categorize nonbelief as a kind of "default." But doing this creates all kinds of problems.
Ah dear vulcan, it would seem that you are logicianing too hard. I was simply stating that humans have to learn about gods and their respective happy places. It's like hate, it is a learned trait.
It's not that humans have a "default" state of believing, or not believing, but a person doesn't have to learn about not believing in something the same way someone that believes does.
I get what you are saying, I honestly do. You make a very sound counterpoint.
