Non-Theist

ANY of the thousands of "gods" proposed, imagined, worshiped, loved, feared, and/or fought over by humans MAY exist -- awaiting verifiable evidence

Speaking strictly of a deist God, I am probably between 2 and 3. 2.5 ish for me.
It is a first class human tragedy that people of the earth who claim to believe in the message of Jesus, whom they describe as the Prince of Peace, show little of that belief in actual practice.

How come you get to choose 8. I didn't know there was an 8. I want 8.

Same here. We should consider if beyond 100% convinced, is the position of holding "convincing" as being irrelevant to a concept one perceives as logically impossible. Because I'm there. I realize it's a subtle difference, but it may be worth mentioning.
