Then you are really delusional aren't you, sorry that has happened to you, maybe one day you will open your heart and mind to the truth.

It's actually you who is close minded because no matter how scientific, how commonly believed, or how apparently workable or logical it may seem, no evidence of any sort can even be considered if it contradicts your sacred stories, which you insist must take priority in the event of any apparent conflict. You are the one who has to defend your preconceived notions because you're forbidden on pain of a fate worse than death to even consider that you could be wrong, and you must maintain that belief no matter how wrong you obviously are. You see your position is the definition of a closed mind—it is not a search for truth.
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"
