Well, Muslims have 99 names for God, and Jews have around 72. I have no idea how many names Christians have, but the Abrahamic god has at least 171.
And that's not even getting into the myriad of names for the pagan gods...
I can't even count all the pagan gods.
I know that language is just symbolic, but my point is that if humans have invented so many names for deities over such a long period of time in our history, how can one deny that there is some basis in fact for such a strong belief. World wide, humans have a tendency to believe in a creator. How can this be coincidental? There must be some truth to such a common human idea.
