Why do you press so hard for evidence of God yet are reluctant to give evidence that God doesn't exist. Could it be you have none.Don't tell me the burden of proof falls on me I'm not the one questioning His existance. Sorry that my writing is such a mess please bear with me.
Our ancient, primitive, illiterate, and superstitious ancestors invent a bunch of ludicrous myths (not only is the stuff absurd, but it isn't even remotely consistent), and now generations later those who still believe the stuff are saddling the rest of us with the burden of proving these bizarre ancient myths didn't really happen. Do you guys ever listen to yourselves?
How do you truly know god isn't Zeus or Odin? You certainly can't prove they aren't real gods (just like I can't conclusively disprove the existence of your god). But what we can do is discern what is almost certainly hogwash from what is likely factual. When I say almost certainly, in the case of your religion, there's such a slim chance of it being true it's not even worth considering (indeed if we were taling about any other subject society would openly berate you guys, but religion get's deference because so many people believe in the nonsense).
Relgion reduces to the absurd. That should be enough, but if you'd like I'll pile it on for you.
