There is a decent case for deism there at least but a God who doesn't do anything while you don't do anything about it and it effects your life in no noticeable way at all does not a good religion make. There has to be a bit more of a follow up on these arguments of design as you can't go from deism directly to the Bible.
Yes agreed wholeheartidly and even how to approach the bible even if It could be shown to go there. But to state as seems to be the position of many that there is no case for a Deity so therefore your an idiot to do so or somehow lacking in some decision making skills is pushing things a little. I find your position much more reasonable in the looser term of the word.
