Why the "There are so many interpretations of the Bible" claim is confused

Unless,  of course, your God has a moral conscience and rewards sincere disbelief that is arrived at following a will to acquire knowledge and make as much of a maximally informed decision as is humanly possible about the truth of his existence (which Dawkins' writings happily encourage), and punishes those who blindly commit to faith on the basis of ill-advised intentions. If that's the case, it is you who might have cause for concern...

Dawkins teaches against the word of God and God, Dawkins teaches sincere disbelief, Dawkins is not your judge. God teaches faith through Christ, God teaches obedience through His word, God is judge of all and thus His Word is what we will be judged by, I hold to what God teaches so I have no concerns.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
