You’ve still added god to the picture for no particular reason. The universe doesn’t need a sentient cause there is absolutely no reason to believe it needs one.
Yes, a god is unnecessary. However, discussing religion and faith is inseparable from discussing God. Especially when we’re discussing whether it is good, evil or even exist.
My point is more that you cannot argue a god doesn’t exist with logic and Occam’s razor and whatnot when the other side of the discussion doesn’t operate on logic alone. If you’re arguing faith you have to reject it on the same basis, i. e. faith.
My personal belief is that there is no god. Humanity made up religion as tool for control, morality, education, etc. I see no proof that god should exist and on the premise that it could exist (neither claim is provable) I reject it.
