I am not afraid of the notion of god.

I in fact now turn my beliefs around to yet an orthagonal direction and contend that not only does your god exist, but yet another mightier god presides over your god. But you would never know that because you have absolute faith in what your god told you, but the truth is that your god lied to you. Sure your god has magnificent powers, but mine is mightier still. But, you'd never be able to tell the difference though since you can't comprenhend such power and just believe it on faith alone. Your god told you that yours was the only god, but in fact there is a whole league of gods...a League of Extrodinary Gods even. Now that i have revealed the truth to you, how can my new faith?

You say god told you he was the mightiest, i tell you he lied, but for all practical purposes, you wouldn't be able to comprehend the difference anyways.

God tells you he made earth. I tell you that some other god made venus, and yet another still made the sun.

Is there any religious artifact or book that discounts that god might have lied to you in the first place? Dare I claim that it was all a ruse?

If your god isn't the almighty of mightiest, can you really respect, worship and really even call him god anymore?

Now that i think about it... the higher up god that revealed to me this truth might have been a poser as well.

Oh well back to just not believeing in god's existance. Maybe better yet i'll say that its more believable that an entitiy with finite powers greater than that of BC era humans came and influenced the creatation of the various religions than an actual god that created everything that happened to have sparked various different religions.

But once again i've confused myself. Could someone clarify for me whose god am i supposed to be afraid of?
