Lol I have valued knowledge and wisdom of all types, never in my life have I discriminated against anything unless it was negative. I have spent much of my life not only studying the sciences but spiritual concepts of the world. I know how to correctly interpret the bible that is agreeable amongst both Christians and atheists. The problem is that people take things too literally. I mean really, I don't need authority to tell you that the world was NOT created in seven days Nor was it created on October 23rd, 4004bc at 9 am. This is just common sense to realize that such an interpretation is ridiculous.
In the same way, I feel many atheists assume that people think that God has an anthropomorphic quality. This is just as ridiculous on both sides of the fence, to make that assumption and to think that God is like that.
Just as it has been reiterated in this thread that some think people who believe in God view God as this tiny person inside of you. That is just as silly as you have made it out to be. I don't need an authority figure to tell you these things. It's like me needing an authority figure to tell you that the earth is round.
Regardless in many ways, God may be correctly interpreted as the unconditional love and understanding, and the manifest of that in humanity. Not only has this been revealed in many Near Death Experiences, but there is a correlation of this concept in all spiritual concepts.
