Easiest, most rational solution is to disassociate government from all/any religion until such a time as one/all can be proven to in fact be based upon something real. That means empirical proof, not hallucinogenic interpretations of migrating fowl. Now if you see four horsemen, I reserve the right to change my stance.

And to prevent further uncomfortable bunching of female undergarments, please note that: The term "myth" is often used colloquially to refer to a false story, but academic use of the term generally does not pass judgment on truth or falsity.

Well......you have drawn several conclusions (generally incorrect) and wandered....far from my simple statement.
But I charge you with this. Produce empirical data such that the only conclusion that can be drawn denies the existence of a supreme being in this universe.

I take it you believe Allah exists?

I cannot produce proof that Unicorns do not exist either, nor can I conclusively demonstrate the non-existence of bigfoot, leprechauns or gnomes. The lack of evidence is proof enough for a rational/skeptical mind. The burden of proof lies with those claiming these "powers" exist. It is nothing short of systemic lunacy.
