I'm not hiding behind fr0d0, I'm agreeing with his assertion that your concept of God is flawed at best and intentionally twisted to suit your views at worst. You've created this image of God in your head as some little bearded tyrant in the sky, when that is not even remotely true to Christianity's vision of God. You have failed to think critically, and that is why I refuse to answer your points. They are simply not worth the time.
As for mine and fr0d0's differing perceptions of God, so what? Ultimately I can't 'give' you my experiences with , my perception of, or my definition of God. Nor can fr0d0 'give' you his experiences, his perception or his definition of God. He and I may differ in opinion on certain things but in the end, reality stays the same. Fr0d0 and I are simply two different individuals experiencing the same reality in two different ways. It is fair to say that our opinions will differ slightly, even on matters such as God, but it is dishonest conclude from that that there is no God.
Faith is a personal matter and is limited to the individual. It's like breathing. I can't do it for you. Fr0d0 can't do it for you. You must do it for yourself, and right now you aren't even trying. You're just prattling on about what you think it means to have faith and what a God is like when you have closed your eyes to the experience of God. I will not engage points which make no attempt at better understanding and instead hammer an inappropriate and poorly informed opinion on the topic at hand.
