   Really, have URL's for those documentary's, or are they youtube.com   
   specials.   
   There are even documentary's saying, in spite of history, there was a Yesus   
   ben Yosef, as 1st century Hebrews would have said. Unfortunately, the   
   supporting evidence is missing.   
      
   A documentary based on fiction is as worthless as not knowing the origins   
   of religions & pretending to know that information.

   But there is, especially when that god doesn't match history. I don't   
   recommend you go there, but consider the age of the earth, the solar share,   
   the galaxy, or the universe. All verify there can not be a god based on   
   Sumerian gods like the Hebrew one.

   No, science that is accepted as theory is. A hypothesis is, not so much.

   Probably, English is not my first language. But...I have an unfair   
   advantage. I can & do use dictionary's. One of the things about   
   assumption, what is assumed dos not have to be evidence base,

   No, but if he had the claimed attributes of your gods, & yes plural is   
   correct, then it would be an indication he might not exist.   
      
   BTW, it would be a good idea to name your god, but limit it to the seven   
   most common names.   
      
   walksalone who is already noticing signs of the discussion fracturing.
