Can God make Himself attractive?
No, because if such a being exists it never reveals itself to win admirers. Total invisibility, total inactivity, total lack of interaction with nonbelievers is not attractive. It has all the characteristics of non-existence and in fact cannot be shown to exist.
Moreso than the nuisances which take our time and money and fool us?
You mean like religion?

What if Eleanor Roosevelt had wings? -- Monty Python
One important characteristic of a theory is that is has survived repeated attempts to falsify it. Contrary to your understanding, all available evidence confirms it. --Subbie
If evolution is shown to be false, it will be at the hands of things that are true, not made up. --percy
