Theomentism

1. A theoretical phenomenon and form of confirmation bias in which the human mind creates a distorted personal reality based on their own beliefs. It serves as an explanation for the tendency of prayer and other religious attributes to work and show up in a believer's own perception. This effect is caused by the tendency of the human mind to place more importance on proof for one's own beliefs than proof against them, allowing for a distorted reality in which the subject is correct, even if they are not. It is also possible that the human mind subconsciously distorts a person's perception such that what they believe becomes true.

2. The god or other entity created in one's mind by this effect.

Theomentism is an atheistic theory explaining why people believe that there's a magic sky man that condemns you for fapping or eating shrimp.
