Now I know he was projecting, and what. He doubts the existence of God,
so, being afraid to face up to the non-existence of God, he is starting
to convince himself that he is God. Lying about doing a research project
gave him another opportunity to play at being God.
Did anyone ever see the film 'The Ruling Class' starring peter O'Toole?

It can be humiliating, but freeing your mind from the shackles can also be
liberating. I found it worthwhile.

Deny: to refuse to accept the existence, truth, or validity of
(Merriam-Webster)
To date you have talked about this god but have given us no
evidence or validation of it to deny. You need to present more than
assertion you know. To put it another way, what is it I am
supposedly denying?

For Zepps level of thought, use "I double dog dare you."
As I said earlier, Zepp shows all the signs of someone on the verge of losing
his beliefs. Unfortunately in the losing he tends to make a mess of the
floor.
If he sticks around inside of a year he will be one of us, may be 6 months.
Unless he runs for his life he is most likely lost to his belief.

Now I have forced you to use the ultimate copout tactic of reflecting to
evade your own point, let's get back to it.
You claim we are denying the existence of something we have no reason to
believe in, and then trying to psychoanalyse this. That is positing a
falsehood and then extrapolating from it. That is to say, it is a man of
straw. Everything else you say falls over because it is based on this
false premise.
What you are left with is, and ever shall be, the burden of proof.
You see, you were projecting your own doubts that God exists onto us and
trying to make your problem our fault. When faced with any refutation
you just run away from the argument using the insult that you know us
better than we know ourselves. That is likely to be because you don't
know anybody else at all.
That isn't normal, you know.
