I don't think humans can ever argue against Gods provided the definition is sufficient to support the concept. I have tried to argue against very particular conceptions of God which seemed clearly to me to be self serving and self condemning. What I and many others see as absurdities, contradictions, primitive myth-making and contrived Movements, you apparently see as plausible. There is a chasm there that I am unable to bridge. I am bewildered to think that anyone has a conception of "Divine" which could possibly include these brutal and inhuman cut and pastings across the centuries.

"I have not said, nor feel the need to say, that if I am right others are wrong"

I trust you can appreciate, that whether you criticize or not, the very act of taking a position for a monotheistic God whose first commandment is to worship and acknowledge He and He alone, that you have indeed said that the other religions are wrong. And these 4200 religions are saying you are wrong.
