God is not redefined. He has always been things atheist
believe
in, like light, intelligence, compassion, and perfection.

None of which are 'god'.

Yes they are, and you know it.

Why on earth would an atheist know that your references are
evidence
of "god" when said atheist does not believe in *any* gods,
including
yours?

We know what produces light, it is not supernatural.
We know what produces intelligence, it is not supernatural.
We know what produces compassion, it is not supernatural.
Perfection is a pipe dream of those who believe in the
supernatural.

Yes, it is not supernatural, but it is qualities of God, which
atheists believe in.

These "qualities of god" are of your own invention, and they usually
correspond to the qualities of common sense, which require no gods.

How can perfect virtues not be qualities of the infinite?

There are no 'perfect virtues'

Nothing makes sense unless it is perfect.
Like what you just said became imperfect
when you enclosed it by meaningles single quotes.

There are no perfect virtues for the simple fact that there is no such
thing as perfection. Calling something perfect makes no sense.
