That is 55,5% of the world that disagrees with you. And is 55,5% really a standard, especially as the Abrahamic religions can not even agree on this god?
And then when you add the other, non Abrahamic religions, that is a lot more religious people who disagree with your minority religion. Man, even we atheists outnumber you.
And is "right" determined by majority? I think not.
That's good but will you acquire the knowledge you lack or at least become familiar with what knowledge is actually out there that should impact your thinking????

I post on musicbanter with a song but thought maybe it could be shared here. It has a AA thought of the day, meditation of the day, plus a prayer of the day.

It is an addiction. Addiction has very little in common with diseases. It is a group of behaviors, and calling it a disease interferes with the understanding of addictions.
Where is the infectious agent, the pathological biological process, or the biologically degenerative condition?
Promulgating addictions as a disease is a concept that needs to stop. Just like we stopped seeing homosexuality as a mental disorder.

Somebody posts something Theism related on a Forum titled "Religion and Spirituality"...and that would certainly figure.
You immediately follow with slams & insults...and continue with such. In my view...you doing that has no redeeming value whatsoever, and is just demonstrative of a biased and miserable mindset.
AA is the most epic and prolific addiction recovery program in the world. Just as Theism is the most epic and prolific concept in human history.
Atheism, on the other hand...not so much. Well...unless it is to get the Adherents to be viewed as low-down...it is epic at that.

You are promulgating the band wagon fallacy. Fallacies have no substance. Don't use them unless you want to be categorized the same way.
