What if there are whole dimensions to existence we can neither see/explain/understand? Maybe humans have Ego's a few sizes too big and brains a few sizes too small.

The atheist argument places its foundations on the idea that we have a solid understanding of everything there is to know, this is essentially a human ego-trip. Believing in God and following a religion is based on faith. I'd rather believe and be wrong than not believe and be wrong. Going by the atheist view of "when dead its all over", then what does it matter if you believed and were wrong? Its not like you get a special treat for it or something.
I'm not saying there are no other dimensions out there. It has yet to been proven to exist. Could it? Absolutely. OTOH, saying Pegasus the winged horse exists when no proof of it is, of course another story.

Almost sounds like the deity is too stupid and/or desperate and will accept a belief even if it is basically an "insurance belief".
