I'm not judging.
Perhaps it could be a good idea to judge the ideas you consider valid.
I think if you made a fair analysis and judged what is before you there is only one conclusion an honest person can reach...its all made up... or do you think God installed an eye witness to creation and that the account was not made up...hinting there was an eye witness to creation should get the alarm bells ringing unless you refuse to consider those facts. ..the only conclusion is the account was made up....and the account does not fit the science I dont suppose that small problem worries you...not to worry but it means you are being dishonest with yourself.
That is a fact ... a fact that decency should tell you not to ignore.
Ignore that fact and you choose a path leading away from truth and not towards truth...you would like to deal in truth so what is holding you back...fear of hell is most folks reply...guess what hell is made up so there is no reason to avoid honest judgent
So page one of the good book...made up stuff...fact...undeniable fact... the good book contains the evidence in plain sight...
Lets go to the flood...Do you like to believe a God could be driven to kill all humans and all animals bar a select few as in any way believable...A god cant do better?
Of course a god could make a better plan but maybe bronze age folk could come up with such an unreasonably simplistic story....there was no such flood unless it was silt free and left no trace that we can not find only 4500 years after the alledged event... if real there would be evidence of such a flood yet there is absolutely no evidence of such a flood.
Or is it just a story and you accept it is made up so as to draw from the story some moral lesson...if so what moral lesson should we take....I cant see one but I would love to hear how you fit that lie into a package you lable as truth.
God just wanted to kill everything ...start from there please.
I just can not understand how you ignore the errors lies and immoral directions in the good book such as to offer that good book as reliable evidence of anything or indeed something that offers direction for decent morals...
I know you feel warm and fuzzy etc but putting it down to the divine seems like a giant unsupported leap in belief.
I gather your foundational belief comes from the good book which appears both incorrect and immoral...should you not judge that good book rationally and consider if it can be relied upon to form a world view.
Religion does not have a monopoly of feeling joy you know and yet it seems the only way you can accept joy is to attribute it to some made up notion and unproven belief that came from superstitious beliefs from the bronze age.
Taking personal responsibilty for stuff will fill you more full of joy than your current dellusion...
And can you imagine the physical mechanism required for a everywhere God ...clearly you can not...anyways believe what you like but that is not really being honest with your self is it?
Your must ignore all the errors, ignore the calls to kill, ignore the fabrications from ignorance, ignore the science of evolution and current cosmogy to somehow arrive at a conclusion out of thin air because you feel happy.
Get real.
Judge my words.
