    Has any God of any kind ever proved that he exists?

    Making nothing up, you said it, everyone can see that you said it.

    So prove God did all the evil things you claim God did.

    I see you have a reading comprehension problem.
    Read it again, slowly this time.
    I said it was written.
    I said that didn't make it true.

    and you are a believer, so prove it.
    you said no such thing.

    so you stand on your soap box proclaiming your belief that God did this and that and then duck out of supporting your proclamation?

    Face it you are a believer!

    BTW.

    I studied Islam, far more than Christianity.
    But I am not a Muslim either.

    In fact, if I were to become religious, it would not be in any of the Abrahamic religions.

    yes it is! you believe God killed people and you believe God conspired with Satan to kill even more people.

    Clearly you are a theist.

    Why would I believe that.

    There are lots of things written into religious lore, from the plausible to the absurd.

    Personally, I find the scales of karma a lot more believable.
    But I am not convinced.

    You are clearly quite limited in your abilities to use rational thought and read language. Discussing a thing does not equate to belief....I thought Gandalf was an interesting character but do not think Middle Earth is real.

    I think the issue requires a miracle playoff. The most miracles win.

    He probably skipped the part about killing the firstborn to promote the exodus. Not to mention the flood or Sodom and Gomorrah, or the parting of the red sea, etc,etc. And we won't even mention the torturing of Job by an obviously sadistic god.

    Sorry but those are facts. Just because they don't support your hypothesis doesn't make the facts irrational. And if you want to pretend there is a god and that god created man and the universe then it is highly illogical to pretend god has no responsibility for the result.

    And no, atheists reject god because believing in imaginary friends is childish and normally abandoned with growing intellectual maturity.

    Of course not. The bible, just like god, is a work of fiction.

    If you aren't following the conversation it would be best if you didn't participate.

    I only need observe that you are arguing about what God did, how can you argue what God did if you dont believe in God? :confused:

    It is what the bible said god did. You have read the bible I assume? And since you obviously have very short term memory problems here is the exchange.

    tecoyah said:

    And I replied:

    He probably skipped the part about killing the firstborn to promote the exodus. Not to mention the flood or Sodom and Gomorrah, or the parting of the red sea, etc,etc. And we won't even mention the torturing of Job by an obviously sadistic god.

    And by the way the " you" is you.

    and you are arguing that God killed many as a fact, the God you claim is a fiction is doing nonfiction acts. Seems there is a problem in Dodge. Thats irrational.
