What are some games with divines and gods in it where the writers didn't feel the need to let their own beliefs flow into the writing for worse?
But in most cases, the gods can be challenged and defied, or even defeated /killed. Arguably, someone could say that those are not real gods if they can die.

Gods can die. You don't know shit of theology.
>Character is such a fedora-tipper that he becomes immune to gods
This might be retarded but I always love it
Atheism originally ment not worshiping anyone gods, nothing about believing they exist or not.
But people don't know that and think Atheism = there's no god, so your point still stands.

Atheism originally meant what it means. It's quite literally rejecting the belief that there are gods. The concept of gods.
If there are gods, atheism is kind of out of the question. It'd like saying you're aeconomical. The economy exists, what the fuck are you talking about.

Actually he is right and wrong
He is wrong in claiming it was not worshipping Gods
He is right about having a different meaning, it was just the was greeks mocked people who didnt believe in the common greek Gods, basically relgion hipsters

Dwemer weren't atheists though, they acknowledged the gods existed, they just held the belief that they're retarded and that anyone can become a god

>existed
and exist*
And they're kind of right, all the things you could define as gods in the elder scrolls universe are kind of dumb
