Ken has never experienced an imaginary god that he made up in his mind.

Come on Kenny, at least when I was a child, I had a pink elephant as an imaginary friend. And let me tell you, he was as real as any of the real friends I had.
:pound:
You believed in Pink Elephants? I used to believe the life of all of mankind was cartoons for creatures on another planet. I used to believe just as I would look and laugh at Tom and Jerry on tv, some alien on another planet is looking and laughing at me and my brothers through their TV; eating dinner, playing with the dog, or doing our homework. Just because that isn't funny to us, doesn't mean it isn't funny to the creatures on another planet.

Pink elephantS, plural? No. That would be crazy. I had one imaginary, pink elephant friend. And he used to sit next to me on the couch. And my parents would sit on him because they didn't know he was there.

24 “Truly, truly, I say to you, he who hears My word, and believes Him who sent Me, has eternal life, and does not come into judgment, but has passed out of death into life.

(LOL) Sounds like we both had some healthy imaginations as children
