Why God is God Alone, and No One Else

The new Conan movie is coming out with this barbarian of the god, Crom. Should he tell the world that it belongs to Crom. He could do that if he is prepared to kill everyone in the world.

In fantasy there is usually abundant evidence to support the existence of one or more gods, in reality there is usually zero evidence to support the existence of one or more gods. Why is this difficult for people to grasp?

You are over estimating the importance of gods The only time that I ever come across the word god is here. Nobody I know is interested in it.

I think it would be worthwhile to find out. Have everyone take a poll.

Would you like it if no god of any religion will have any earthly representative attempt to take the world on behalf of that god?

Would you like it if the supreme God, creator of the Universe was content in that He already owns everything and has no use for conquest in His name?

No, just no. Polls aren't exactly scientific.

Embrace the zero evidence god.
A much more people friendly sort of God.
Conan is not such a good analogy because he was no a zealot bu just recognized it was what his tribe said God was and the name stuck with him.
Like people who say, Jesus! but not in a worshipful way.
But Conan was ready to take the world and would have for Crom, if he needed a god to do it in the name of.

The rest of the world, having come to an agreement concerning God, would join together to tell Conan, "The true God, by agreement has no name, so your god has no legitimate claim to the world. We decided that the world was created by and still owned by the One who created the Universe."

there is no evidence anyone has created the universe. Why would we agree on nonsense.

You'll never get 'the world' to agree to anything. Who is Conan? Conan The Barbarian?

Is it possible for educate skeptics who have learned critical thinking and are capable of rational and objective analysis of emperical evidence?

They may be the minority. The majority have at least a vague concept of a god out there, somewhere.
I'm not saying create a new theology but put a limit on what is being done by religionists of the world in the name of whatever.
All the people with a fuzzy god concept, unite in favor of adoption of that god as the official world God, for political purposes, not for actual worship because the fuzzy God needs no worship.
