Primitive people believed a lot of stupid shit. People used to think the world was flat and that the sun revolved around the earth. The Aztecs sacrificed thousands of humans to appease multiple gods. What about witches? If this is your best argument that god exists (because primitive people were able to imagine it) than even you shouldn't believe god exits. Your analogy to a brainless amoeba doesn't make any sense either.

What I'm saying is, the idea among primitive people that there must be a creator isn't really primitive. If the world were really and truly godless, primitive people wouldn't have been able to imagine a god at all. It would be like a a brainless amoeba fantasizing about the idea of infinite bodily cells.
