GodIsImaginary.com proof #3: historical gods rebutted

• If historically worshipped gods (Egyptian, Roman, Aztec) were imaginary despite massive worship, is today's God just as imaginary?

The hosts read aloud proof number three from godisimaginary.com: 'look at historical gods' — belief in God is ubiquitous through the ages; the Egyptians built pyramids, Romans temples to Jupiter, Aztecs pyramids and temples, yet we know those gods were imaginary, so today's God is 'just as imaginary'. Their rebuttals: the argument backfires since the atheist's 'strength in numbers' stance is actually the minority position (Islam, Judaism, Christianity, Hinduism, Buddhism all affirm a higher power), Christianity takes the fire because Jesus is a threat (there is no 'anti-Buddhist blog'), and they had earlier addressed prayer and coincidence/cancer arguments with appeals to Exodus and the supernatural. The segment frames the discussion as an ongoing multi-week tour of the site's 50 proofs.
