OK, [i]which[/i] god?

Ra? Osiris? Horus?
Manitou? Tsohanoai?
Fujin? Amaterasu-Ōmikami?
Shangdi? Zhongli Quan?
Odin? Frigg? Thor?
Zeus? Hera? Apollo? Artemis?

What you & Ramaswamy mean to say is that all the gods I've just named, and thousands more, are fake. But. The Abrahamic god, you claim, is real. And that begs two questions:

(1) How do you know all the [i]other[/i] gods are fake?
(2) Why doesn't that same reasoning apply to [i]your[/i] god??

P.S. For the sake of argument, let's assume that, for each god listed and thousands of others, there have been people at various places and times who sincerely believe they have had personal experiences of their god's reality, prayers answered, communications replied to, etc. etc. In other words, for all gods, there are sets of honest sincere believers.
