Prove Christianity, not Theism in General

[FallentoReason]

The Scriptures tell us that much of it is metaphorical and that they contain deep and profound mysteries not readily apparent from its literal meaning:

"I will open my mouth in a parable : I will utter dark sayings of old, which we have heard and known, and our fathers have told us." Psalm 78:2,3

“I have also spoken to the prophets, and gave numerous visions; And through the prophets I gave parables." Hosea 12:10

“To whom would He teach knowledge? And to whom would He interpret the message? Those just weaned from milk? Those just taken from the breast? For He says, ‘Order on order, order on order, line on line, line on line, a little here, a little there.’” Indeed He will speak to this people through stammering lips and a foreign tongue.” Isaiah 28:9-11

“And he was returning and sitting in his chariot, and was reading the prophet Isaiah. And the Spirit said to Philip, ‘Go up and join this chariot.’ So Philip had to run up, and he heard him reading Isaiah the prophet, and said, ‘do you understand what you are reading?’ And he said, ‘Well, how could I unless someone guides me?’” Acts 8:26-31

Without your straw man you have nothing to rail against.

Sooo... the best that can be done is throw everything up in the air and shrug our shoulders?

From my experience, simpler truths in life are straight forward and don't require such mysterious riddles to work out. Perhaps the ghosts of 2000 years ago are pulling your leg?

If I may...

It doesn't make sense literally because of the numerous contradictions that sort of reading spawns e.g. two creation accounts. But then a metaphorical reading doesn't work because of the apparent intricate relationship between the OT and NT e.g. the genealogy from Adam to Jesus. Surely the genealogy isn't from metaphorical man to literal man? Therefore, a literally reading seems to be the most logical... as far as "logical" goes with the Bible.

Bolded by me to highlight the hilarious logic applied by fundie atheists.

I'm not an atheist.

Seriously? It doesn't make sense literally so therefore the literal reading is the most logical??? Who taught you about logic?

Considering that your reading comprehension left you thinking I was an atheist, I can see why you're trying to pull off such an absurd argument.
