A very popular semi-imaginary being whose believers serve as a straw man for Atheists.
Most likely a mechanism in the human brain used to cope with survival.
Though many people have died for It, many people live for It as well.
Just because it's in your imagination and you keep it to yourself doesn't mean it will hurt you. Some people need to believe in god.
Atheist, talking to themselves: Christian: I believe in God, even though (scientific theory that Atheist read about in Time the other day) says it's not true.
Atheist, talking to themselves: Hindu: God exists because (mentions several seemingly barbarous traditions of Hinduism) GAR GAR GAR!!!
Athiest to imaginary straw men: No, because (scientific explanation)
Passing Agnostic: STRAW MAN!!!

John Lennon:I believe in everything until it's disproved. So I believe in fairies, the myths, dragons. It all exists, even if it's in your mind. Who's to say that dreams and nightmares aren't as real as the here and now?
Me: I don't have to believe in god and I don't have to not believe in god. Either way, I'll die and if I rot, it's not like I can be disappointed, and if I get to heaven, it's not like i lost.
