Greetings fellow God deniers (and others; don’t want to leave anyone out).

I have been an a-theist (I use a-theist in the denotative sense to distinguish from atheist which has a negative connotatation) for longer than I can remember; well maybe not longer than I can remember but less time than I can remember back in my lifetime. (What an idiotic sentence).
My feeling about the God thing: if there was some sort of super intelligent thing out there somewhere and It decided to create something It became frustrated because either It couldn’t figure out what It wanted to do or did know what It wanted to do but found itself unable to do it for whatever reason (lack of the necessary technology?).
As the frustration grew so to did It interior pressure (akin to blood pressure) until the pressure built to the point that It exploded; hence the Big Bang: goodbye It.
Just for a mind experiment I propose there is a God who/that created the universe and all in it.
I find it impossible to comprehend a God that has the slightest knowledge or concern about an insignificant life form on an insignificant ball of stone and water spinning around an insignificant star circulating an insignificant galaxy etc., etc., ad nauseam. Face it there are billions of galaxies, the Milky Way is just one among so many others.
Those who want to believe in a benevolent God are to my mind are free to believe. Frankly to me that would be a benevolent dictator and you know where that leads.
