You are right. God is not mythical.

Through the reading of popular scientific books I soon reached the
conviction that much in the stories of the Bible could not be true. The
consequence was a positively fanatic orgy of freethinking coupled with
the impression that youth is intentionally being deceived by the state
through lies; it was a crushing impression. Mistrust of every kind of
authority grew out of this experience, a skeptical attitude toward the
convictions that were alive in any specific social environment - an
attitude that has never again left me, even though, later on, it has
been tempered by a better insight into the causal connections.

You seem to have several misconceptions about this subject. There was a
power struggle long ago where the men in power decided to split the
Universe into the visible by man and the unseen spiritual elements. This
division of the Universe philosophy and social power continues today.
Science controls the seen and the church controls the unseen.

We do not have to follow this false philosophy of the divided Universe.
The Universe has a purpose. You have a purpose. The Universe is not a
result of random events.

You are correct. It is the result of Murphy's Law.

Well, you might be a result of Murphy's Law but I'm not. Good luck with
that.
