Today, that would be equivalent to those who profess to know God but are Hippocrates.
No one here fits that profile.
Anyone claiming to be Hippocrates belongs in the nut house with the ones claiming to be Napoleon or Jesus.
Skepticism is not a position; it is an approach to claims.
Science is not a subject, but a method.

Other followers, who would undoubtedly already know? Or would they warn the people that don't follow jesus, which according to you are against him, and in service of the devil...in which case, why the hell would we care, if we are in service of the devil? Why bother 'warning'? Our nature is enmity with God. I was once in collusion with the devil, I turned, now I'm in collision. Why would one care to turn? Well, some do, some don't. I turned simply because I believed the claims of the gospel to be true. As a saved Christian, God revealed himself to me through scripture, testimonies of others, through the Holy Spirit, through His Word, and by how He works in my life. One has to come to God in his own heart first, not by head knowledge. Head knowledge can show you truths but you just have to give it all to God by faith. " Without faith it is impossible to please God..." Hebrews 11:6
How do you know you were in collusion with this Satan chap? Did you work together on plans to hurt people? Did you see him? Or are you just making the assumption because you didn't believe in one particular religion?
Personal testimonies for many of us aren't evidence, in the same way as many people who claim to be alien abductees isn't evidence to us, no matter ho vehemently they believe it.
"One has to come to God in his own heart first, not by head knowledge. "
There's a commonly stated piece from Christians and others. In fact many Christians clearly state that knowledge is the enemy of faith. If that's true, I feel sorry for those who refuse to question

It's not condoning sin like the Catholic Church would have you say Hail Marys. And no you can't just go out and molest a child thinking that you can say " God forgive me" because the Holy Spirit convicts the saved of there sin. God saved the ones who are written in the book of life from before the foundations of the world. He knows and knew the hearts of the truly saved, those repentant hearts, hearts that fear God, hearts that continually turn to Jesus and seek sanctification.

Why are we talking about books now? Weren't we discussing gods?
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

My god book says to have sex as often as possible, including lengthy foreplay sessions, drink (good) wine frequently, listen to music you enjoy and generally have a good time.
I like my god book. It's a keeper.
