What beliefs would we consider reasonable for a self proclaimed Christian to hold?

[GrandizerII]

Dodged the question troll.  Again.  (Of course.)  Why is the Bible so spectacularly unclear?  Why does your "god" suck so spectacularly at communication?  You believe this creature not only MADE humans, but the entire universe . . . billions upon billions of galaxies.  Yet its supposedly "called to the ministry" mouthpieces can't agree on what the book (either written or inspired by god, depending upon the sect) SAYS.  

A book which, I unfortunately still have memorized.  I called myself xtian for over 40 years, to my great shame.  I have read the entire Bible, it's a big reason I'm now an atheist.

"you have to put forth some effort"  - A book that supposedly is the answer to keeping a "soul" from eternal torture is deliberately obtuse, unclear, and can only be understood if you glean hidden messages from the text through reading, meditation, and prayer. Uh-huh.  Imagine if textbooks and recipes worked like that.  2 + 2 = 17 if you pray about it hard enough.  You believe that the vast majority of humans that have ever lived on this planet are going to fry forever, but that's ok because only the group that pulled the RIGHT meaning out of the magic grimoire are worthy of heaven.  "put forth some effort"  That's unbelievably sick and vicious.  It's tribal and sociopathic magical "we're special and they're not" thinking.

I understand why there are so many interpretations.  The book was written by ignorant bronze-age men who wanted power over others, and wrote down old fables to scare people into compliance.  The bible has been used to support racism, slavery, genocide, rape, and, of course, war.  You can make it say whatever you want it to say.

But, since you think that your oh-so-loving sky daddy will fry you forever if you doubt your magic book for one second, you are absolutely incapable of questioning it, aren't you?  
You are completely incapable of putting any of your beliefs under scrutiny, but you seem to think you are qualified to come here and try to "educate" people.

Any omnipotent and omniscient entity can speak - CLEARLY - for itself, in any place, at any time, to any people anywhere - without the need for a human to speak FOR it.  So Why is the Bible so spectacularly unclear?  Why does your "god" suck so spectacularly at communication?

I will answer your question, but I doubt very much that you will like the answer. The earth we live on is a testing area. It is a place of learning and a place to increase our faith. We all volunteered to take the test because of the opportunity of growth it presented to us. In order for the test to be fair and accurate we had to forget our past. The test criteria is about how we live our lives. Will we love each other? Will we help each other? Will we be charitable? Will we be honest? Will we be humble? Will we do the right thing? Are we tolerant of others? We will be judged according to our knowledge or our lack thereof. I believe the Bible is quite clear about these things. I don't dwell on the negative. I say accentuate the positive. There is great satisfaction in doing good.
