There's zero evidence God is real. Might as well say "we can't say with 100% certainty Harry Potter isn't real. In the story the wizards all hide from muggles."
Sure. And itβs totally fair to take that and extrapolate that religion and spirituality are nonsense.
Not everyone is going to come to the same conclusion though, and many individuals will have highly personal reasons for finding or rejecting religion and spirituality. This is an area where we ought to embrace diversity of thought so long as it does not harm others, as unfortunately so much has on this topic.
