In that if the bible was man's idea of God it would reflect a picture a 'morality' you would be able to identify with. as it is it seems as if you do not have the most basic understanding of the Law or attonement. even though you have identified yourself as a moral person.
No, it does not reflect a picture of morality that I can identify with. That is the whole point. It reflects a warped picture of morality that only people of that time period would identify with. If god had written it, then the moral laws laid down would all still be applicable now. I don't know what 'Law" you are referring to and I don't know how you came to the conclusion that I don't know what atonment is, especially since I didn't say anything about atonement. (or are you referring to atonment for original sin? I could easily discredit the validity of original sin if need be...)
