Ok, anons, I believe in the Creator, but how do I know if he's a person or a lifeless being? Life, intelligence and personality exists in the Universe, ok, but I don't think the fact that life exists and Humans have intelligence and personality
necessarily implies that the Creator has these same qualities too, even remotely.
God is the name people give to the infinite and mysterious authority that reigns over reality, and I can accept that.

You might enjoy "Mere Christianity" by C.S. Lewis; it basically takes you to where you are now, and then goes towards Jesus.

there was a big bang probably because of francium, everything came into fruition from that.
god is literally just an explanation of the unknown from many many years ago when people were a lot more primitive. god doesn't not exist, it is a figment of imagination, there's zero chance of any star-man being in charge of the universe.

Blasphemy.

First unmoved mover, eternal being who started the "big bang", if that even happened.

The existence of God is not a matter of faith and it can be proved by natural reason.

I suppose I would ask you how God gave us all of those qualities, if He did not possess them, nor knew what they were.

Evolution? I don't know, I'm not an atheist, I'm just in denial.

The personal God, the supreme being, what you're talking about, is merely the summit of conditioned existence. He is the greatest Being there is, but Being by virtue of it being describable and thus limitable, is not the greatest imaginable ideal
The personal, manifested God is merely an emanation of the impersonal Unmanifest, the Absolute. this doesn't triviliaze God, in fact, it points to something even greater than him
