The only thing that changed is that the story is easier to believe if theres one single god, instead of several bickering. One lie, is easier to believe in than 10 differrent ones. It still doesnt change where the lie camefrom though. The story might change a bit, but the end persona is still the same, as you admited "super-human" power. So, instead of 10 you got 1 god. Why would it not be still a fabrication? Why should i believe this time, if the last one is proven to be a lie? |
The arrogance argument is applicable in all options (deism and atheism). The reason is that a deist would be arrogant to consider himself the center of the universe (which isn't true anyways), as much as the atheist could be arrogant for considering not needing a God to exist, were that true (which is a poor accusation but it's as valid as yours).
Anyways arrogance does not indicate veracity (or the absence of it).
The possibility was from the point of view of Christianity. It's only possible if it's true that Yahwe is a fabrication of the human mind, which unlike your "proof" of the greek gods being so is far from proven to be a pure fabrication, we won't even get into that.
As for proof of God's existence, there is substancial proof but I'm not interested in that debate with you.
Also, the vagueness of anyone's speech does not prove anything. Someone can be vague due to the resistance of the listener, someone can be vague because he is lying, while another is vague because he prefers the litterary style of something that is less exact. Vagueness, again, proves nothing.
This has to do with macro evolution and multi-verses in that, to me, that is a fairy tale and you have NO way to prove to me the contrary, as I have no way to prove to you that God is real. They each have their evidence and need to be considered individually, not sweepingly like this.
The idea of God being super-human doesn't make the concept a lie. There is little foundation to your logic.
It's not because one is "proven" or even convincingly false that another one is... For example Christianity involves a historical figure (Jesus and the apostles and disciples), we can read about them. The Greek gods also have this (homer's Odysee and the Illyad), but they are not as reliable for instance as the biblical texts. Not to mention that much of Jewish history is embedded in biblical narrative.
