Well, yes. But the acknowledgement of its possibility does not and should not change our proof-tested understanding of the universe/daily rituals, not until theres a solid proof - otherwise it would be madness & if you do not see hwhat it would lead to... i dont know hwhat to say.

He actually believed in Gods. He Just retained them not infinitely good. He thought Gods were perfect interdimensional beings thinking only about themselves and their pleasures.

i have no problem with assuming the possibility of some greater power/gods existance, but to model our lives and rituals based of the unproven "fact" that he indeed is out there for sure is far, far more cringeworthy than being a pure fedora wearing atheist.

False dichotomy. The universe as we know it could also be the logical result of laws of nature, which is far more likely than it just being "random." Also the hidden premise in your argument is that all complex things that exist require a creator. But the creator would also be complex.

who put those laws or how did they come to be? especially when you notice how complex and structured they are. did they also sprung from nothingness?
