Yeah, if for instance God of Bible was real then we would see angels flying around; bad people like child molesters punished by thunders from heaven, diseases or maybe sudden death; we would see good people being rewarded and healed by praying and not the other way around like it is.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
