Let's just say i'm a member of the Unchurch of Quantum Agnosticism: god both exists and does not exist.
I could be quite happy in such a place.
Both of which are anathema to me.
I understand the reaction; it isn't the most exciting proposition. But it did mean that the implementation of laws, for better or for worse, was procedurally simpler. As for the studies of the universe as a single entity, well, that allowed knowledge to combined with greater ease.
Of course, one of the best lines in The God Delusion, and one which I wholeheartedly agree, is from Ibn Warraq; if you're going to express doubts on the array of polytheistic gods down to just one, why not go a step further?
