[Losty]

I was a Christian until I was about 23. Long story short, I started reading the Bible and realized I didn’t believe anything in there.

Hi Losty,  There is a lot in the  Bible that seems far fetched.  Some things are really hard to wrap the brain around and understand.   Some of the versions are so hard to follow as well for me.  I use the NLT version and NASB.  It is a whole lot easier to read and understand.  So if you don't mind, is there anything in particular that made you not believe the whole?

Well there’s the obvious stuff mainly, a man living in a fish, a man building a boat big enough to fit two of every animal, the idea that homosexuality is somehow morally wrong, killing babies, forcing women to marry their rapist or even stoning a woman to death for not yelling loud enough when being raped. There’s too much in the Bible that simply cannot be true if there’s a good loving all powerful god out there. There’s too much in the world that just can’t exist simultaneously with a good loving all powerful god. I know the world is real, what I’ve witnessed myself and what many people have witnessed and documented is real. So god just doesn’t make sense with that.

Now maybe there’s a god that isn’t all powerful or isn’t all good. I don’t know. But if there is it certainly isn’t anything worth worshipping.
