The Problem of Imperfect Revelation: Your Thoughts?

Then you're no different than any other nonbeliever, you'll accept anything that supports your hate for Christianity, it doesn't matter to you where the truth is. When young earth Creationist don't agree with your science you insist they read about it and don't say you don't many web sites have been referred to for us to read.

Because, as I have said before, I don't believe there to be a right or wrong answer here. Unlike natural processes - where the right answer corresponds to what actually happens, even if the evidence seemingly indicates otherwise - there is no "correct" answer in religion. Everyone who reads it seems to come up with different and contradictory interpretation with all of them citing scriptural justification for their position. The truth here is irrelevant because there doesn't seem to be a "true" interpretation. Rather, all sorts of interpretations are equally true.

And by the way, god's omnibenevolence would actually detract from my hate for Christianity - not support. I'd definitely prefer a religion with a benevolent god than a vengeful one. Thus, you are the one giving me justification for my hate and my qualified acceptance indicates that I still care about the truth.
