Honest Question to Atheists - Best Argument?

[pocaracas]

Pyrrho,

So our ancestors where savage. That doesn't mean the ones who where truthful with themselves where somehow deceitful with others. They had a selfless view for good. They were still human though.

How can I refute texts that I haven't read? I know about the NT even though i haven't really read it, but I don't assume anything about any other texts. Basically if the text says that God is a positive thing, and that there is only one God, then I'm interested in it. Time is limited though, and the religions of highest influence are my primary goal.

You can continue to deny every plausable claim I make I you want. Free will.

(my bold)

Now there's a nice argumentum ad populum, if I ever saw one.
