An unanswerable question

Prove it.

(Biblespam isn't compelling evidence, by the way, unless it comes with independent support. Think of it as trying to build a house on sand, if you like.)

Actually, notwithstanding your assertion, what you've basically said is that I, an atheist, am fully capable of doing good things without your spiritual instruction book.

The word of God is sufficient.

No, something can only be good if it glorifies God. You do not glorify God.

To believe that, you'd need to prove that god exists, that's he's good, that any source can undeniably prove what he wants, and that there is no other alternative to worshiping him that would get you anywhere. Of course the bible makes these claims, but it doesn't prove anything. In fact much of what is in it has been proven to be wrong or just incomprehensible.

If it's good enough for you, then fine, but it isn't good enough for most human beings, through no fault of our own.
