[Serious] Why are you an Atheist?

[maxolla]

Thats not exactly how I interpret what I have read and what I know about scripture.  Genesis is generally accepted to be written by Moses.  It is also excepted that it was written in his own words.  

No it fucking is not accepted that the genesis account was written by Moses in his own words. Moses cannot be demonstrated to have existed in the first place.

If you are going to argue any position at least do it honestly.

Ipuwer Papyrus would seem to disagree. https://beginningandend.com/did-the-exod...he-exodus/

In short.  We as human beings see the world in different ways.  We interpret what we perceive in varied ways and even our language is imperfect in totally accurate communication.  I would say that Biblical text just as any writing can be interpreted along many different lines of thought.  If we both read the same novel you may come up with a very different interpretation of the text than I would based on your experience and the fact that all human being are unique from one another.

I except that I am wrong and have misunderstandings.  That’s why I am interested in learning from other peoples perspectives when they will allow understanding.  I would not say that I am typical in theist circles.  It's prefer to understand than be understood.  This is why I don’t particularly care whether or not my conclusions are perceived as right I would prefer to be right.

Lastly, Ipse dixit doesn’t cut it.  Just because most of the Christian world believes in hell, I have yet to have someone support is properly with scriptural proof.

You would say the same to me regarding the existence of God.  However, I’m not trying to prove his existence to you.  I’m here to know more about your why.

You came here with the questions as to why people here are atheists. However at the same time you seem more interested in debate over the existence of God. It's fine if you want to have something to believe in, it really is. I take no issue with it. But it seems the common consensus here is that people who do not believe in God do not believe in God do not see enough evidence to support that claim. I am not sure what more you want or what you think you are accomplishing my continuing to debate.

No debate. I was asked a question. I answered it the best way I knew how.
