The Bible is full of contradictions and horrendous immorality on the part of Gaud himself, so the most likely explanation is that it was written by people who were inspired by speculation and hallucination. Why do you think so many shamanic religions are so into drugs? Sober people don't come up with shit like that unless they're crazy.
Could you explain 1) what would an all knowing all perfect all powerful God be like? 2) what contradictions are you talking about? 3) how long have you been studing the bible? 4) do you think you have a biasis against there being a God? 5) If you do or don't why are you a trustworthy source for the truth? 6) what are your qualifications for a primitive society and why are you labeling the ancient jew/hebrews this way? 7) is morality subjective? 8) if morality is subjective then why are you attempting to subject God to your standard? 9) Have you done a study on reality and hallucinatuons? 10) how do you know what is real?
And what's with all the questions? Shouldn't those who lack belief be asking you the questions? Good grief.
Do you come to this forum to hone your apolgetics?? Because if you do.....YIKES!
Pardon the interruption, I couldn't help myself. Carry on and proceed.
