Not that it matters much what some guy who lived 2500 years ago thought but Plato didn't believe in God he believed in The Gods, more specifically he believed in something he called "Forms", like Gods they were perfect and eternal, but unlike Gods they were not alive and didn't move or think. > In all case God is by definition the origin of things. Then "God" could be stupider than the stupidest person you ever met, be less conscious than a earthworm, and have less effect on your day to day life than your pet hamster. Kind of a pathetic thing to confer the lofty title of "God" on don't you think. > It can be related with the god of the philosophers. The God of the philosophers has had no effect on world history or on current events and is so flabby fuzzy and general as to be utterly useless.
