Who said anything about solving problems? I'm not worried about "the meaning of life" or needing God in order to have a purpose-my purpose is maximizing my utility function (roughly having fun and helping people). I'm asking because it looks like there's a non-trivial chance of God in fact existing; I don't see how the convenience or inconvenience of a God would change the probabilities.
God? Or god? Or gods?
The question whether there exists a being (or several) with what we consider to be supernatural powers is a different question from whether that being is adequately described by the Old and the New Testaments...
Also, don't forget that, to adapt a quote, "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from miracles".
