What defines a god? The general definition of "the supernatural being conceived as the perfect and omnipotent and omniscient originator and ruler of the universe" is disproved by science. I'm aware that science itself could be wrong as I'm also aware that none of you may exist and I may be a dreaming robot made from delicious soup but this is all
very unlikely, so much so it should be assumed impossible. Now, I do believe it is scientifically possible for there to be 'deities' i.e. "a supernatural being worshipped as controlling some part of the world or some aspect of life or who is the personification of a force " because in many ways there are people and things that fit this definition however the 'God' in question is the abrahamic god who fits the first definition and thus I declare this god's existance to be, in the most practical definition of the word, impossible.
