The concept of what god is has changed, if not evolved, over thousands

still requires belief in the supernatural. I've not seen or read of

anything that proves the existence of the supernatural.



Like Ivan Karamazov, my disbelief in a supreme being "creator" is at

least partially based on the fact that innocent children suffer.



If you *know* all that, then why would you ask a question like-

"Aren't they all the same guy, gal, rock, piece of wood, statue?"

That is, unless maybe you really don't have a clue...

To get attention.

Narcissistic behavior? (That was rhetorical.)
