IMO once you demote God from an utterly transcendent, omnipotent, omniscient, omnibenevolent entity to a mere being among other beings, you undermine the best reasons to believe in God in the first place.
I agree. That's sort of the point. What reason is there to think a God who is a mere being actually exists?
God could be incredibly powerful, knowing, etc... but not this infinite magic power/knowledge level.
Some could call the state of the universe as evidence.
But the point is, if we learn at the moment of death what God's true nature is, and it's almost exactly what you thought, but not omnipotent or omniscient... wouldn't you still follow God and call God "God"? Do you love God, or do you love power and knowledge?
Many indeed are there who will call upon others to question their own beliefs - even, sometimes especially, their deepest, most profound beliefs. I tell you, few of these will question their own beliefs. For they, upon seeing the light, have decided to point it out to every other human and tell them to go. However, those who tell others this are the ones who themselves need to question their own beliefs the most. How much easier it is to speak than to act!
