Personally, I cannot bring myself to believe in any gods. Do you think that I should be considered a traitor?

No, just not thinking very well. Look at creation and you will see your creator's hand at work.

Circular logic. Yet even if one concedes creation, there is the question of whether or not said Creator retains juristiction over said creation.

I've been told this before, but I still cannot bring myself to believe it. I cannot explain how the universe came to be, but I also realise that inventing some intelligent creator to explain it all even when I don't have all of the facts (ie, a completely working knowledge of all of the physical properties of everything in the universe) is a premature leap. Further, even if I did assume some intelligent creator, I still don't see how I would discern any intent, motive, disposition or any other attribute other than "ability to create universe" to attach to this creator.
