I'm absolutely sure that the Lord Buddha denied the existence of a creator god. Of course many Buddhists may believe in gods, but that's a different thing, wouldn't you say?
You said that Buddhism has no "divinity". I then based my answer on this contention by illustrating that Buddhists may well have a divinity, or divinities.
More complex than my what?
Far more compex than your blanket assertions that Buddism is only "X", or that Buddhism cannot be "y".
If your aim is to show my ignorance of my professed philosophical affinity, then you wouldn't be the first. The Lord Buddha taught us that nothing is infinite, but my ignorance of Buddhist scriptures and teaching would test that assertion to the nth. degree.
No, that is not my goal. My goal is simply to encourage you to tone down your sarcasm and learn more about the religion that you follow.
