Bible quotez!!
My eyes! Arrrrrrggh!!
Yeah, but seriously? Throw your holy book out. It proves God like my copy of Hansel and Grettel proves witchs.
This is the laziest counterargument I've ever seen. It's just a slightly-rephrased version of "The Bible isn't true", which is just as lazy an argument as saying "The Bible is true". And it's just as convincing.
It's a slightly rephrased version of "The Bible isn't a valid sourse if it is being used to prove a God."
You obviously didn't understand what it was I was trying to get across.
I guess I'll get over it, like I always do when theists make blatant mistakes...
My conclusion is that there is no reason to believe any of the dogmas of traditional theology and, further, that there is no reason to wish that they were true.
