RE: If you believe in the God of the Bible, why try to prove it logically?

you lost me.
i did not say anything about good/bad choices, merely preference of one choice over the other. i don't think my dog is bad if he doesn't love me. his old toy isn't another 'god' he chooses over me, i thought it was the rejection of my toy that we were talking about. because the christian god doesn't let you go free if you merely reject his claim of existence, you don't need to pick a god over him, the mere disbelief of him is sufficient. So I really wasn't talking about picking other gods over the christian god. it is the disbelief that i think you equated to rejecting his love for us, if i'm mistaken then I apologize.
And you are using the word evil in a way that I've never seen before. If someone offers to buy me strawberry ice cream and I say: do you mind if I have chocolate instead? If he then says: no, you're evil for not wanting strawberry.
Does that make him just?
