They're certainly free to believe that. They're also free to keep it to themselves. And if they exercise their freedom to spout off about it, they're free to be ridiculed. I try to reserve the ridicule for people who insist their freedom includes the right to deny me mine, but it ain't easy.

There is zero "proof" of a god. Just because a book written by a bunch of goat herding shaman 3000 years ago mentions a city that actually existed or any person that actually existed is not proof. The bible is historical fiction, nothing but the writings and musings of nomadic, middle eastern, goat herding shamans, fishermen, and tent makers intent on accumulating wealth, land acquisition, controlling women, and controlling their societies through the stories and tales they told around their campfires and the fear those stories and tales relied upon to achieve said control.

Much of this impulse in human culture to create a religion is driven by people's own existential angst, their innate and instinctive fear of death, their own death and the death of the people they love. It can seem easier to deal with death by convincing ourselves that it is not real. "My loved one is not dead - they are in heaven and we will see each other again!", we tell ourselves. And ... "Of course I will never 'die!' that's absurd! I'll just go to a 'better' place."

The other impulse in human culture to create a religion is driven by the desire for power and money. An all powerful god wouldn't need your money but his representatives are always crowing about the tithe. Power and wealth. Power over other men. Power over women. Power over culture. Power over society. That's all religion is truly about at its core.

Nobody has a valid argument for the existence of God. If somebody did, that argument would come up in every debate about the existence of God. That person would win the Nobel Prize. It would be headline news. Over and over. NO ONE would be able to refute it.

Instead, Tik Tok, YouTube, and Imgflip apologists constantly seek ways to find some sort of “gotcha-loophole” and they always get destroyed once someone actually examines their new tack. Playing with apologists is a constant game of whack-a-mole where the moles never win but they keep on popping up with what they think is a new argument. They’re so over the top desperate to be right but evidence ALWAYS points in a different direction than religion and faith.
