I would go further and say one cannot disbelieve in God without knowing, or at least having an idea of what reality is, for unless one claims to know the extent of reality, how can one suppose to know what it does or doesn't contain? > Personally I don't disbelieve in God, I merely find the idea highly > unlikely > Why do you find it highly unlikely (what is the conception you are assuming here?), also, to what degree do you hold the main idea the everything list is meant to discuss, to be true (or likely)? > and don't find that it contributes anything to discussions such as "why is > there something rather than nothing?" > But "god" is the supposed answer to that very question. The question is not is there an answer or isn't there (of course there is since we are here), the question is what is the nature, and what are the properties, of that thing, that object, that answer to the question of why reality exists.
