But he used to provide evidence. He used to show up all the time, according to your silly book. Did he, what, change his mind? God is capable of indecision? Thought BETTER of showing up, decided hide-and-seek was better? You just said he doesn't provide evidence because it would violate free will. So how come he USED to provide evidence, according to the silly book?

Because they already believed and open their hearts to Him.

Thank you.

Now I can continue to be a reasonable heathen.

Open your heart and allow you God given faith to flow through your mind.

Again, why would such an evil being be worthy of respect, let alone worship?

Because they are the ones that choose hell, and he gives them life allowing them to make the choice for themselves instead of never giving it to them.

He created them. He created them knowing that they would make these choices. He is a fuckin asshole.

And yet, God himself went around the Middle East, telling people about hell, and seeing to it that his words about hell would be immortalized in the bible. And here you are, exhorting us to make a decision based on fear of hell.

You're completely two faced. You claim God doesn't want us to choose him out of fear of hell, yet it was He who told us about hell in the first place. That's fucked up.

That's exactly what I said earlier, but was ignored. According to their own silly little book, their deity made appearances or provided evidence on an almost daily basis.

Yet, today, all it seems to be able to do today is appear on grilled-cheese sandwiches.

You mean forego with reason and logic in order to believe simply for the sake of believing? A deluded mind can, of course, imagine that something exists even though it does not, but would living in reality not be so much more enjoyable? I think so.

He allowed to them to make the choice. Not his fault.

Isn't that the Force?

So there were no atheists then? Not a single one? Everyone could see him? No iffy agnostics hanging about?
