Layers upon layers upon layers...does anything actually exist outside of our perceptions? If you truly don't believe in God, does that mean that in some way God doesn't exist? Ugh...it's like an ice cream headache.
I guess the key word here is 'Truly Believe'. You can not think outside of universal laws and boundaries. It is just not possible. If you can think of it then it is possible.
Coming to god. If you don't believe in him then something else take that place in your perception reality. It is just a matter of word and concept. You don't apply the god word to this picture/concept but another one. And who knows- We all might have the same idea in our head but calling it different words and figting we know the best.
For ex: My god may be a person sitting somewhere on a high chair playing ping pong and eating ice cream. But someone else's god may be in all things and all beings. They may not recognize my god and I may not recognize their god. But their perception is wider and more comprehensive. They are seeing the solar system from the space while I am seeing it from the earth...
