Sardaukar,
That is your perception.
I suppose that's one way of putting it.
You don't know that.
If you're talking about digging in the dirt, combining chemical, or trying
to find traces of Gods' DNA, then I would be inclined to agree.
Don't you be so rash as to conclude he doesn't exist.
God is IS love, care, compassion etc..
By definition He IS reality.
That is an unreliable, and relative statement.
I doubt that man is capable of making such a complete concept, which holds
for as long there have been humans.
There is no history of such a combined
effort, let alone one which last for so long.
As for rewards, fine. We are all looking for happiness, atheist and theist alike.
We just think differently.
Most people don't believe in God because they want to answer questions of life.
Having such questions answered does nothing for individual soul.
This is where the explicit atheist dwells in order to prove at least to himself,
there is no God. Which is why the discussions have become bogged down.

He also displays qualities such as insecurity and ignorance. Contradictory of his supposed immaculate nature.
That is your perception.
Because if the universe didn't have an overseer life would cease function?
I suppose that's one way of putting it.
There is no evidence of God's existence.
You don't know that.
If you're talking about digging in the dirt, combining chemical, or trying
to find traces of Gods' DNA, then I would be inclined to agree.
Don't be so rash as to conclude he must exist out of necessity.
Don't you be so rash as to conclude he doesn't exist.
Given as you said, God is loving and caring. He can no longer work outside those given characteristics, and if he does then that too is compiled into his nature.
God is IS love, care, compassion etc..
By definition He IS reality.
By whom? Religious text has already proved itself countless times as an unreliable source.
That is an unreliable, and relative statement.
Man made God. We twist and distort the definition of a figurative being that probably doesn't exist, so as to answer our questions of life, to feel rewarded for our "good" deeds, with the promises of heaven, and Whom do you think wrote the bible, why man did. And man is a sick creature filled with devious manipulative perception.
