After all, we always create that which we most desire, that which will have the most positive influence on society, and only through the ages as we progress does it become most apparent that what used to be popular has found itself floundering amidst the waves of societal change.
Anyone intelligent enough to spell a word properly should also be capable of understanding that a god which should exist cannot disgrace us with messages that only come from believers full of overwhelming acclaim that overshadows logic.
Dishonor fills the theistic world on too many levels for any of their apologetics to be taken seriously. Be a true believer and own up to your abhorrent silliness or forfeit the illogical faith for reality.
As the idea of god is a disgrace to any sensible individual, unwarranted belief is not above reproach.
After all, a true god would not be the kind of disappointment that cannot prove his existence to anyone except those who profess through ill reason.
The Almighty should be compelled to "prove His existence" to who? His creation? To you, oh man on this one terrestrial ball!?
Yet, because He declares and exhibits His humility, He righteously does prove the same - “For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them. For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse, because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened. Professing to be wise, they became fools.” - Romans 1:18-22
Creation, which we love to enjoy - as does the Holy Bible - tell us GOD thoughtfully made it all to be enjoyed! Yet, rather than be thankful, ask questions, or at least be silent, some are regrettably unwise enough to insult the Almighty.
Error that comes with consequence! “Today, if you will hear His voice, Do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion.”
I have told you.
You see, this is where the problems is. When we start asking questions. Especially, questions your great big book of pure bullshit doesn't have answers for, your gawd, or at least it's spokesmen, try to shut you up. Your gawd doesn't want smart people. It wants obedient people. Smart people ask difficult questions. Obedient people simply say "yes, sir." Smart people investigate their world, looking into every nook and crack, peeking behind ever curtain. Obedient people simply accept what their told, doing little else. Your gawd is far more like Donal Trump or Kim Jong Un than it is like Carl Sagan or Stephen Hawking.
It's also described as a hateful, puerile bully in the only book written about it.
Why should anyone be obedient to such a gawd?!? Always assuming it even existed.
