75. See, I'm much the same way.
It's just that gods simply don't enter into the picture for me, because I cannot physically believe in them - there's zero evidence that the gods described in pretty much all religions exist.

What you speak of, regarding dimensions and all that, may very well exist, and science is certainly teasing out possibilities. But thousands-year-old tribal myths? Those are no closer to being true than the tale of Lucky the Leprechaun, based on the lack of supporting evidence.

Could there be beings like 'gods' out there? Maybe, but so far there's no credible reason to think there are. However, I wouldn't say there's no reason to not wonder about what science hasn't helped us uncover yet, if there's anything to uncover.

I'd be fascinated to read more about those things you detail in your last paragraph - got any links I could peruse?
