Rationality would indeed triumph over prejudice Frodo, if only you (or those like you) would exhibit some.
Where to even begin on the issue of evidence against the christian god. How about, just for starters, there is no evidence that the bible is the word of god, that god exists, or that the bible is factually accurate. Case in point, all of the evidence we have suggests a position to the contrary.
Genesis is not an accurate account of material creation, the origins of life, or the early history of our species.
The books of the old testament are not historical texts.
There is no collaborating evidence for any of it, whatsoever, cover to cover. (including your imagined christ)
There is no evidence for the existence of a thing called prophecy, nor magic or the "supernatural".
The miracles therein are demonstrably impossible (related to the point above).
So, if there were a god, it is not the god described in the Bible. It is a fairy tale. So is the christian god. Unless......you have some evidence we've overlooked.
