You don't have to convince me that you believe this, lol.
So you perfer the muslim god of 9-11-01? (and the last 20 years of gulf war)
what about david koresh as god?
these are so much better to you so as to disparage the God of the bible?
seriously were you not alive durning waco? did you not know he was suppoes to be Jesus' 2nd comming? do you know nothing of the taliban or isis? is this the god you would embrace?
I'm an atheist, Drich, lol. The question of what gods I would prefer is a non-starter. Hell, it's not like I'd "embrace" any of these gods even if they existed - I'm pretty sure I've shared my mind with you on this before?
You're just confirming my comments with each of these posts, though. It's not like it would matter what gods you would prefer either. If david koresh actually were a god, then david koresh would be a god...but clearly you'd still be screaming about your magic book in that event. Similarly, that you prefer the magic book to some other existent god doesn't alter the fact that the magic book has been thoroughly discredited. Finally, if there were no god (spoiler alert, there isn't) you'd still prefer your magic book.
As a side note, pursuant to the above....can we get confirmation from you that the jewish god, the various christian gods, and the islamic god are not..in fact, the same god?
*Waco. I was, yeah. A few years later I got a job breaching buildings in much the same manner, lol. Those Davidians really could have used some training.
