@fimilleur from time to time mankind experiences the presence
of God, there have been and continue to be events that testify to the presence
of Him.The multiple
gods you continually point to have an unique difference from the
God who first revealed His presence to
ancient men i.e. the Hebrews.The particular
gods you mention roman etc. are all man made and in many instances men themselves i.e. hercules, but even the
ancient greeks realized the limitations
of their understanding and included an «unknown»
God in their worship structure.many cultures did likewise, having a glimpse
of God but not the fullness
of understanding that was given to the Jews.Whether or not «we» believe, does not alter the fact that
God exists as an unique being, whether or not «we» acknowledge Him «we» will stand before Him.You do not choose to understand, but we are actually standing in His presence right now as He is much bigger than the doctrines and knowledge man ascribes to Him those things you find so questionable are the misconceptions and misrepresentations
of God made by men throughout history.
