Default Re: Definition of God

I'm not sure if its sufficent but a necessary part of my definition of a god is:

A being who can make things happen simply by an act of their will.


My atheist/agnostic statement:
The possibility of god(s) cannot be ruled out.
There is no reason to believe in god(s)
I don't believe in any god(s)

Then, if you want, comment on the follow up query.

I think this is a critical foundation with the abundance of God posts made in this forum, in particular because so many atheists see drawing any belief without evidence to be completely ridiculous/insane/stupid.

Nothing ridiculous/insane/stupid in having faith as long as there no deception/pretence that it is reason rather than faith.
