Not cynicism. Realism.
Only those into supernaturalstupid thinking will think there is a real supernatural God.

I still do not "Get you" *what you believe"- known you for a decade now - know you are a Believer - unlike me.
and hate Torah God as blood creature (my view also) - you seem to ignore the Minor Prophet view of that God unlike me, and I'm still clueless in the God you believe in as a Gnostic Christian.
as you know by now, I'm an Atheist.....................just still clueless as to the nature of the God you beleive in.
and as always welcome understanding.
hope you are well and Happy New Year Sir!
Same to you with my belated greetings.
I am not a believer the way others believe. That label usually denotes believers in some supernatural fantasy.
My God is one of the easiest for all to understand. He is named the same as your God, should you choose to step up. I am.
Modern Gnostic Christians name our god "I am", and yes, we do mean ourselves.
You are your controller. I am mine. You represent and present whatever mind picture you have of your God or ideal human, and so do I.
The name "I Am" you might see as meaning something like, --- I think I have grown up thanks to having forced my apotheosis through Gnosis and meditation.
In Gnostic Christianity, we follow the Christian tradition that lazy Christians have forgotten that they are to do. That is, become brethren to Jesus.
That is why some say that the only good Christian is a Gnostic Christian.
Here is the real way to salvation that Jesus taught.
Matthew 6:22 The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light.
John 14:23 Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.
Romans 8:29 For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren.
Allan Watts explain those quotes in detail.

Joseph Campbell shows the same esoteric ecumenist idea in this link.

The bible just plainly says to put away the things of children. The supernatural and literal reading of myths.
Are you ready to step up and claim your right to rule yourself my friend?
