> The existence or might of the gods is not in question, but whether or not their self-declared origin and nature can be trusted. To believe an entity truthful because they say they are truthful amounts to nothing but circular reasoning. The divine mechanics must be established by means that do not rely on the testimony of the gods themselves, and worship specifically runs contrary to this by narrowing the paths of interaction to those chosen by the deity, and further encouraging the society to regard other avenues of inquiry as heresy.

> The gods cannot be established by any objective means as actually residing over their claimed spheres. Thus, the act of worship is at best wishful thinking, at worst self-deceit, and in either case liable to only deepen our ignorance as to the true origins of the world and blindly subject us to the tyranny of potentially malevolent entities.
