“It’s obvious that the whole concept is nonsensical...”

Obviously not, or so many humans who were more intelligent than you or I would not have spent so much time on the question.

“... so now the guessing and projecting begins.”

Well, I told you I was going to use my reason to make a guess, so pointing out what I just told you wins you no points.

“I never said a perfect being COULD not create imperfection. ... It’s just unlikely.”

Ah. Why should the likelihood matter? We aren’t discussing a roulette wheel or the chance of rain next Wednesday. We’re discussing the potential actions of an intelligent being, and the actions of intelligent beings are not ruled by probability.

Faith has far more to do with emotion than intelligence. Faith meets an emotional need (that some people have.) Then intelligence is engaged to try and justify it.

Prove it.
