I believe most atheists would say that such a god cannot exist, due to problems with omni-3, for example, or for other logical reasons. My evidence is mostly circumstantial, though-- it's the sense I get from the particular atheists in these forums.
Not at all specific enough. "God" is never *defined* in the Bible, (if you think it is, show us where). A completely coherent definition is not only NOT there, but also impossible.

Hardly. Show me one.
Quote:Remember, in the end the burden goes to the one who wishes to change another's view-- you have to provide a compelling reason for that change.
Nope. Who says it a game of changing minds, anyway ?
Christian religionists admit that what they believe is not the result of reason ... (a "gift of god" .. St. Paul)[/quote]
Every religion is true one way or another. It is true when understood metaphorically. But when it gets stuck in its own metaphors, interpreting them as facts, then you are in trouble. - Joseph Campbell
