Basically the stories of the bible, how they sound pretty made up, they involve magic, talking animals, illogical scenarios.
First impressions count the most, and my first impressions involving stories of God are already tarnished. Add to that experience of debating with Muslims who have pretty much identical illogical stories.
Other than that I don't have a core disbelief in god really, I just see no evidence yet to say there's a god.
and if one could use the bible to reconcile "evolution" with creation?
You mean like that laughable farce of an explanation you provide where you try to have it both ways with your "monkey man/Garden of Eden" nonsense? Why would anyone take such convoluted "reasoning" seriously for even a moment, unless they are committed to salvaging the Biblical narrative at all costs?
