I think the correct comparison would be, “since no one can agree on the nature of Earth/Earth’s existence, Earth must not exist” but this is ridiculous since everyone agrees on at least one fact about Earth: we live on it. The original argument still stands. Denying the existence of god(s) doesn’t lead to any ridiculous contradictions of universally experienced observations. Denying Earth’s geometry does.

That’s the conclusion I came to as well, but I was worried that I was rationalizing, so I had to downgrade my confidence in the argument.
