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

I don't have to. I'm not looking to prove God's existence. I'm looking to find out if there's a single atheist here with a shred of rationality.

But that's not what you were arguing just a while ago. You were arguing that my point is irrational because I haven't addressed any "evidence". Do try to remember your own points.

You haven't presented any for me to address. Present your evidence, I will address it; but it isn't my job to construct your points for you, you'll have to do that work yourself.

One of the few New Atheist quotes you'll hear me repeat is from Hitchens: "What can be asserted without evidence can be dismissed without evidence." I don't care what you believe. But coming here and braying about irattional atheists without presenting your reasons for finding them irrational -- i.e., without presenting your evidence for review and critique -- is simply the act of someone who wishes to be taken at face value without any scrutiny.

Perhaps you've come to expect that treatment somewhere else, but that dog don't hunt here, bud. If you wish to charge me with rejecting reason, you'll have to lay out your line of reasoning.

Until then, you're just another internet asshole, plumping his breast and parading his foolishness.

Color me unimpressed.
