God as a Cognitive Prosthesis



Atheists and believers aren't so different. For both, ideas about how to live their lives in both the short term and long term literally just pop into their heads; but the believer thinks these ideas come from God. But both still have to determine which ones to follow - they both have to use their best judgment. Even though he's God, he's not any clearer than what arises from the subconscious of the atheist.
