There may well be aspects of the natural cosmos that are beyond our ability to describe or understand.
What do you mean by “an entity”? Do you believe that such an entity has consciousness? Does your conception of such an entity entail that it is supernatural? What justi ...[text shortened]... you believe in a personalistic being of some sort, especially when you use the personal pronoun.[/b]
Well, one possibility is that God exists in the collective consciousness of humanity.
This could be closely related to the concept that God is an invention of man.
Another possibility is that God is the immutuable laws of the universe which we as humans have only begun to remotely understand.
I think my point is that an irrational and fundamental belief in the premacy of Yahweh, Allah, Jehovah, Atheo, Ahura-Mazda, Ba'al, Ra, Vishnu, etc is just that...an irrational belief.
Also, arguing for the premacy of one over the other is devisive.
