See cos, I never said you should believe in God, nor do I see it as my role to convince you to. The opposite actually. I think it is wrong for me to have debates with people who say they don't believe in God, where I try to change their mind. I don't think you are getting that.

My comment was that there is a major influence by believers on human culture regarding the role of humans that is based in belief in God, even if you don't believe that influence came from God. There is no influence by the belief in or myths around water buffalos with wings. To say that the role of humans as designed by God (as reflected in literature or otherwise) does not have to be denied in imagining your world without the influence of God's design on man is not at all like the winged buffalo. It was you who originally brought the "Without God" terminology into the discussion, which is to say you are dismissing something already introduced. Right?
