If a religion is about inventing God, then why? And if a religion is about discovering God, then how?
The majority of Western Christianity believes that it resides within the first question, and answers: "Because it is utilitarian and therapeutic".
The Christianity of my heritage believes that it is answering the second question, and believes this to be so in large part because Christianity dares to make its case in the world of the falsifiable.
(Oh, and on edit: the "pro" side of the debate will be answering the question by the standard of the first question. And they will, thereby, lose the debate)
As professors Ed Feser and Peter Kreeft both show ,the existence of God is demonstrable by reason alone from evidence. Modern materialist philosophical roots are what stupid means. Check out these guys We're brain dead in the west.
