The cosmological argument asks why there is anything at all, pointing to a necessary cause beyond the universe.

It invites reflection on contingency, causation, and the origin of existence.

A quotation from Terry Pratchett

Not that he had anything against belief. People needed to believe in gods, if only because it was so hard to believe in people.

Terry Pratchett (1948-2015) English author
Discworld, Book 7, Pyramids (1989)

New analysis shows the lines between theism, atheism, and a-theism are blurring. This is different from how people usually think about belief.

If a Creator G-d exists, It obviously doesn't care whether this body gets old, sick, or dies… so why should I care, if it does? Its own Creator destroys it.

It can be shown that the set of omniscient beings is empty using the sentence:

This sentence isn’t known to be true by any omniscient being.

Since some religions hinge on omniscient being existing, this sentence shows the fallacy involved in those religions.

A key difference, between theistic religions and Buddhism, is, if G-d created us, then there can be experiences we cannot handle (drug addiction, lust, etc) and about which we must ask for help. But, if beings are mind-made (manomayā, Dhp 1), then we never 'need help'.

Throughout history, monotheism has usually been a geopolitical construct, more than a spiritual reality. Ask an AI this: describe the historical progression of how Yahweh and Allah (Al-Ilah) changed from polytheistic to henotheistic to monolatristic to monotheistic.

A quotation from Eleanor Roosevelt

I doubt that anyone does not really believe in God. People may think they don’t have any belief, but you will usually find that somewhere down in a human being’s soul there is a belief in something beyond himself. In any case, I would not judge a man’s character by his belief or unbelief. I would judge his character by his deeds; and no matter what he said about his beliefs, his behavior would soon show whether he was a man of good character or bad.

Eleanor Roosevelt (1884–1962) First Lady of the US (1933–1945), politician, diplomat, activist
Column (1956-08), “If You Ask Me,” McCall’s Magazine, Vol. 83

Taking a moment to remember 12 of humanity's over 5,000 Gods. We love to make up a god and then call them myth when we tire of our creations.
