there are very successful and well educated people who believe in God as explained in holy books from different religions. very different, even the most religious person, bases his beliefs on faith. the kooks who believe in ancient aliens and the rest never say their belief is based on faith, they always claim that there's tons of scientific evidence. scientific evidence that has as much science in it as the 80's teen comedy Weird Science.

Believing in a religious god is no different than believing in aliens or ghosts. All are based on something that can currently not be scientifically proven.
Actually, I take that back. Believing in organized religion may be worse. At least we know there is a real possibility that aliens do exist somewhere. But there is no chance that god exists in the biblical sense. To believe in a book that was written by man is completely naive. The bible, even though it gives people hope, is just as much make believe as a Dr. Seuss book. The same applies to any other organized religion out there who prays to an all encompassing deity, and does so based of off the written word of man.
