Are Buddhists really atheists?

Atheists in the West claim that Buddhists are atheists, so they (the atheists in the West) feel better that they are not the only atheists in the world.

My purpose is to ask Buddhists whether they really deny that God exists.

From my part, I know from my reason and intelligence that God exists.

So, paging Buddhists, please come over and let us discuss whether you Buddhists really deny God exists.

Dalai Lama is a mental construct? Not to himself, he has to escape and stay in India for his most dear life, otherwise he would end up in a re-education center in Tibet.

@yrger The Dalai Lama like all phenomena is a mental construct.

@yrger Your version of him and mine are different. Does he exist apart from your aware of him? Can you separate the two?
