 Well sure but the other side is-  okay while the 'gods'
 men acknowledge are obviously man-made does that mean there can be NO
such other sort of life form somewhere out there in the vast universe
humans might regard as 'gods' in the same way primative humans once
regarded White Europeans? That's not to say we need to worship them
or even bother thinking about whether they exist or not but one
can't know until contact is made.

((This is an old trick turn about ET's which Theists hate to talk
about as being real at al, because that would mean their so called Gods
mught be ET's in fact. .. Well of course they're not! They're straight
out of human brians is where they're from!))
