I don't think god wrote those ... since I don't believe in god to begin with. God did not author scripture or found religions.![]()
God never did write any books nor He started any religions.![]()
I guess you never thought about that mord, did you?
However, self-styled god-followers DO make those claims and often impose them on others, so that is what I'm addressing -- the actual harm.
Of course if you disavow both the scriptures and religious tradition as a source of information about what god does or doesn't promise TO people or require OF people ... then you are left with your personal claims about what god says to you, which can be dismissed out of hand as not being useful information for anyone but yourself.
