Do you think you'd still be a believer if the bible were more pleasant/accurate?

[abaris]

Because I wasn't raised to believe in them.  Being a believer is much easier when you're raised into it.  If I were born into a more rational/nicer religion, I'd have probably continued rationalizing it.  I'd have been comfortable not having answers to questions that were raised.

Given my level of education, I can't see myself taking that path. Biology and Paleonthology would always have interfered with any belief I can possibly imagine. At least as far as scripted deities, concerned over humans, go. Even more so, since I didn't give the abysmal stories of the bible much thought anyway. So that was certainly the least important reason to give up whatever faith was left in me.
