Just exactly why do you have a problem with a superior being?

Just on this earth how many are far beyond you (and me) in intellectual capacity?

Just on this earth how many are far beyond you (and me) in power and influence?

Because the minute you accept this Big Invisible Forever Creature, your attention is diverted from real life. It leads to the next question: Why? What does it want? Now you are on the path to Conjecture Land, and you might as well become obsessed with Harry Potter for all the good it will do you. Your mind has found a fun and mystical escape. Like people who start playing with Sims or get into World of Warcraft. You aren't living in this world anymore.

That in and of itself isn't my problem. Most people are deep in a Matrix of their own building. If they can step into reality long enough to do their job and pay attention while they're driving, it doesn't much matter. But those who like to go around telling others that they are going to Hell unless they believe in Jesus, Mohammed, or that Mormon guy, well, that's irritating. It's also a mild mental illness, far as I can tell.
