   but it's not. how can you say that when there are literally billions of   
   ppl who believe in and worship God? you're claiming in essence that   
   that's meaningless, purposeless, and inefficacious. you have to deny the   
   plethora of testimony to assert that, or else claim that ALL the   
   testimonial evidence is false.
