“You do, you know,” said The Lady. “Everyone has gods. You just don’t think they’re gods.”

- Terry Pratchett

    There are plenty of new age wuwu types that do define reality as a god. If I thought they had any legitimacy I wouldn’t be an atheist, but the core idea is that we essentially exist as constructs within the imagination of this god.
