Perhaps GC, if god was interested in his "hiddeness" he shouldn't have traipsed around the middle east performing miracles for a few thousand years eh? This sounds more and more like a child defending their imaginary friend. I'll do you one better, not only is this line of reasoning complete ad hoc bullshit, perhaps god should have traipsed around the middle east performing all those miracles for a few thousand years, and then we wouldn't even be having this discussion?
