I'm sorry you are seperated from that which creates and maintains the multiverse and all possibilites. It is sad, but you are not as far as you feel. If you felt the reality of being absent from that presence that creates and permeates everything, it would certainly make you a believer.

The 500 foot man who turns Kansas into Gold would have a lot more claim to "god" than a bunch of people with "faith" and old books. (books written and edited by man)
I don't demand anything. There may be a god, there may not be a god.
I am just willing to say the words "I don't know."
How do you know what I am seperated, what if the only true God was the God of the Apache? Then you too are seperated.
Furthermore, what if there is a god and he is a very loving and king being. So kind and loving, that he loves us all regardless of how we live our lives, or weather or not we kneel before altars. In which case I am not seperated.
One of the things that seems most illogical to me about "god" is the demand for worship.
Wouldn't an all powerful being have better things to do than torture people who doubt?
God of the Bible = Kneel before me, acknowledge me as your god, accept Jesus as your savior OR else suffer eternal torture in Hell, a place which I created. And by the way, I will offer no empirical evidence that I exists, you will just have to hope that you are born in a Christian nation. Muslim children get the pitchfork.
