The multiverse theory could explain both the existence of this universe and the existence of every single god mankind has ever believed in and then some. I would have thought that believers in God would love the multiverse theory because they can't even explain why their god would exist in the...
Atheism is just the absence of belief in the existence of gods. A Christian believer in the Bible is 99% atheist in that he has an absence of belief in the existence of all gods except for a few. If you theists could get together and at least agree on which gods exist and which parts of your...
