it *might* be fun to further explore if humankind would be better off knowing for certain there is no god, or would we as a group or species be better off knowing there is a god.
in the short, without a god, we learn we're responsible for our own destiny.
with a god, god decides. we can sit back and coast along.
I want to engage in both, from time to time.
We would be better of knowing the truth, and not believing in fairy tales.
on that you and I are in full agreement. the disconnect comes when one realizes that often fairy tales are the closest to the truth that we will ever be able to come. Joseph Campbell said it best when he stated mythology is the closest thing to the truth that we humans have.
