I must be really bad at explaining things. I have refuted the “feeling”.
You say: “Proof of god is not forthcoming”. Then you contradict yourself by saying that it is in the human mind. So the concept of god is there, otherwise we would not be talking about it. So the question is, where did it come from?
You say a “feeling” put it there. Okay, and I say that this feeling means nothing and I offer my arguments (see above).

I loved that. Will defiantly read some Kierkegaard tonight. Its really to bad that he coped out by throwing god in there. Much like Descartes did. One really has to wonder whether those are his actual thoughts or weather the strict social standard set by the Church forced him to add god in there.
Kierkegaard really seems like a skeptic with lines like: “What characterizes a leap of faith is the absolute uncertainty that underlies it”. Then decided to bring forth god, who is characterized as a certainty. Which seems to be a contradiction to everything he said before as the concept of god is just as uncertain as anything else. But of course I am judging a book by its cover.
