Same man. I don't want to believe in physicalism but.... where's God. I would worship him if he showed himself. I'd lick his feet clean. Anything to be saved via spiritual immortality

But first he has to be real

I dunno man. That guy murdered a bunch of babies via plague, killed some kids via siccing a bear on them to maul them to death, wiped out almost all life on the planet because he didn’t like how the humans—a very small sect of life on the planet—was acting, slaughtered a city, denied man knowledge, and loves songs about babies’ heads getting dashed on rocks.

Oh, and if he really is responsible for everything, then he’s responsible for creating a world where living beings have to kill other living beings to survive in the first place.

Even if he’s real, I don’t think he’s worthy of worship. They claim he’s all-loving, but that love seems pretty darn limited and conditional.

I much prefer Sir Terry Pratchett’s take: if there is a god, then it is up to us to become his moral superior.

Sure, doesn't even have to be physical. But if the entity isn't capable of interacting with my day-to-day life then there's no difference whether I believe in them or not. Might as well just default to empirical evidence.
