Why I shouldn't be astonished for those why deny a creator for such elaborated universe

Many of them simply don't want to see it.
Have you given thought that nature can be observed to without Stone Age, Bronze Age, Iron Age, Dark Ages and Middle Ages belief in superstitions and the supernatural.

The belief in creator god are no better than believing in pink unicorn, fairies, and ghouls and goblins, all of them based on wishful thinkings or they are seriously tripping, or simply deluded.

Agreed, but I only meant to speak for myself. This is more or less what I was saying about clouds though. Clouds and dragons are similar in this respect. If people don't call them clouds (or at least think of them as clouds) then they aren't clouds. The point being I create the dragons myself as opposed to someone carving them for me to see.



Sure, but in this case I'm doing it intentionally. Using my imagination to see what I want. I could as easily see a gryphon or a manticore or a couple of monkeys playing football. I like dragons though... so that's what I see.

Speaking of things seen-
Your cartoon there takes up a lot of space, do you, ah, mind?

May I add another possibility? "Based on cynical scams?"

I've a banker friend.

She says the tellers are trained to watch for
a customer beung scammed.

Say, an okder lady of regular habits who
withdraws a large sum.

Ask in a casual way what it is for.

If she says something like "To pay the tax on my
Dutch lottery prize!", they will ask, "Did you enter
the lottery."

"No."

"So how...."

Anyway, they will take their time to explain
she has been scammed, but it is always quite
a process convincing the scam victims.
