It's like, I think there are real things which are usefully modeled by electrons, but do not 100% match with the model of electrons, and people who think that there are literally little balls rotating around the nucleus of an atom are wrong, but not totally 100% off.

Similarly, I think there may be a real thing which people model in their heads as "God", but that model, while useful and sometimes accurate, is wrong in significant ways.

I'm not sure if that makes me realist or non-realist :)
