The problem with that Catholic argument is this:
We have a book that says that God showed himself in a burning bush, caused supernatural events to plage Egypt for nearly a year, brought forth a pillar of fire and cloud for all to see, split the oceans that the Hebrews and the Egyptians witnessed, had a big light and sound show...
And 1500 years later, he causes a big zombie fest for the dead to rise up in Jerusalem...
And we then get this bullshit answer "Well, God doesn't want to do anything because that might influence people..."
What, he changed his mind? Got tired? No longer gives a damn?!
Or maybe, just maybe, none of that suff really happened, and the believers deep down know that, and they have to lie to themselves with "Oh, God can't do anything miraculous, like STOPPING A FREAKING PLANE FROM BLOWING UP THE TWIN TOWERS because, well, that would be forcing his will on people.
You got your bibles chock full of God forcing His Freaking Will page after page!
But now that you are no longer dealing with ignorant Bronze Age folks, it's "Ooooh, of course there's a God. He just can't show himself anymore because that would be interfering, and he tried that, a lot, for centuries, but now he doesn't do it anymore."
Do we appear to be THAT stupid?!?
Oh, and since the zombies came up just before the Passover Seder, you can imagine what that night looked like! lol
