  1. While I don't approve of bashing someone's faith, I have to ask, based on what evidence, Cathy? The word of your own God was rewritten several times by man, and none of what the Bible claims is scientifically supported. For example:
  2.  
  3. How is the tale of Noah's Ark possible? That much water would drench the plant life to death. It would kill any sea animals not accustomed to the type of water. What did the carnivores on the ark eat? Certainly not the other animals. With the vegetation almost wiped out, the herbivores have no food once it's safe on land again. The herbivores die, leaving the carnivores either to starve or resort to cannibalism. How did animals from all over the world make the trip to Noah?
  4.  
  5. This is just one example of how the stories of the old testament are fantasy. No, you can't say it just worked because God willed it.
  6.  
  7. Let's say the Bible is meant to be taken metaphorically. Christianity, in terms of founding principals, teaches a lot of good things. Don't kill, don't steal, love thy neighbor, do not let yourself be consumed by envy, or greed. Why does God need to teach these through fantasies? If his desire was for humans to believe in him, and worship him, he only should need to reveal himself to us, and then he wouldn't need to demand blind faith.
  8.  
  9. Instead, Judea-Christian versions of God demand unquestioning devotion, under threat of eternal suffering. That doesn't sound like a loving father to me. That sounds like a narcissist.
  10.  
  11. Back to my earlier point at the beginning of this comment, there are documented meetings to revise, and edit the Old and New Testaments. There are lost books that evidently were omitted from the "accepted" versions of the Bible. Why should God have to have several men revise his words behind closed doors? Especially if he is a being who is omniscient, and should have known what rules he would need to set in place from the beginning?
  12.  
  13. On that line of thought, if God knew Adam and Eve would defy him, why tempt them? Why dangle forbidden fruit in front of a creature you know is going to try and take it? That's intentional set-up for failure.
  14.  
  15. We can disprove the logic behind many of the things "God" supposedly had done, or allowed to happen, thereby discounting the existence of "God", at least as Jewish, Christians, Catholics, etc believe in him. I ask you then, where is the proof that "God" does in fact exist?
