If there were not a real God, there would be no reason to have counterfeits.

What a preposterously inane comment! The only difference between a deist and an atheist is that the atheist believes in one less god than the deist. ALL of the deities proposed so far have had EQUAL proof of their existence: NONE.

Amos, that's why I said it was "the closest thing to a 'counterfeit' god" that I could think of -- that since the truth of the matter is an entirely moot point, being beyond the possibility of proof or disproof, the only thing that can be counterfeited is belief, but someone else can then take on that belief as real (like people who have decided that The Force is real, even though it was clearly created strictly as a fictional phenomenon, or people who have fallen for Dianetics and Scientology, even though they were just created by L. Ron Hubbard as a way to bilk people for a fortune, tax-free).
Since your God (Of the Bible) is one of the more recent and an proven almagram of earlier ones,,,you might want to rethink your train ( Logical trainwreck)of thought.
The Flying Spaghetti Monster might be what could be construed as a counterfeit god.
IF there were one real god and lots of counterfeits, the oldest one ought to be the real one, right? You can't counterfeit what's not created yet. That means some Hindu god or ancient Chinese god is the real one.
With me so far, rhutchin? Hello? Hello...?
