If the purpose is to inform us straight out of something that it wants to tell us straight out, then I guess it would do so.
Why do we assume that an omni-type deity would do that? Is it possible that it's better for people to learn it for themselves? Being a great pianist includes the process of learning. It might be that being morally good includes that also.
I don't know, since I'm not omniscient. But assuming that a god which is far beyond human understanding would share our opinions about things seems unjustified.
Again, if the purpose is to inform us of something that we really need to know about our wellbeing, you're saying your argument wouldn't change? That you'll stick to your current argument and not acknowledge that perhaps the counterarguments is reasonable?
Belaqua, what ... exactly ... is stopping you from being a Christian?
