I mean, why even ask questions? Why even bother with something you can't even define? Sounds pretty pretenious to me... like an artist trying to explain to something why his little doodle is worthy of notice. I had a line in my signature for a couple days... I think it pertains to this discussion: Art is not genius in itself. It is convincing people that it's art that's genius. Take it even further and you see how humans are just mystified with sensationalized things: celebrity culture. Celebrities are no more perfect than you or I, yet they are regarded as outstanding human beings, given attention, money and praise without even earning it like WE have to.

God is just the ultimate celebrity. He's had a few millenia to build up his rep, too. That's pretty awesome for something that doesn't exist.
