I agree. Anyone making absolute claims is suggesting they posses absolute knowledge. Would you also consider it “incredibly arrogant” for someone to claim that god has been proven to exist, even if it’s only to themselves? |
Yes, Jack is absolutely right…it works both ways.
But I would even take it one step further and say that ‘ creator ‘ in this sense can mean anything but a personal interactive god or gods.
Yes, it is possible some form of creation took place…yes, it is possible that some form of an entity we might refer to one day as godly or god-like was that catalyst or instrumental in it…yes, it is possible some kind of god-like thing exists in some form, and perhaps in a form we least expect it…
but the likelihood of a personal interactive god-being, although possible, is about as likely as saying/believing we are all the imaginary creations in someone’s elaborate dream world.

The evidence is not only visible, comprehensible, and available…it is also abundant.
God loves us
God is our Father
God has our best interests at heart
God does not punish the innocent
The children are dear to God
etc etc etc
As a Father I love my children
as a Father i have the best interests of my children at heart
as a Father i do not punish them for being innocent
my children are dear to me
etc etc etc
God is all-powerful
God is omniscient
I am not all-powerful
I am not omniscient
If I was all-powerful and omniscient I would help that child starving in India, I would help that child about to be raped…
because…
As a Father I love my children
as a Father i have the best interests of my children at heart
as a Father i do not punish them for being innocent
my children are dear to me
etc etc etc
but I am not all-powerful
I am not omniscient
God loves us
God is our Father
God has our best interests at heart
God does not punish the innocent
The children are dear to God
etc etc etc
but God does nothing…
therefore…I am more God than God…because I do care and would act if I could…
God does nothing…
why does God do nothing…
it is not because God doesn’t care…
it is not because God punishes the innocent…
it is not because God would not step in…
it is because …
there is no God.
Do you understand now…or do you need more proof? 
If this personal interactive god exists it completely lacks the parental qualities we have assigned to it…including and especially the love of it’s children.
It behaves in a very non-parental manner be-fitting an entity that does not have parental instincts or mannerisms…including the expression of love.
