You use two standards to judge religion: science when assessing God as something that should exist as hard fact, according to you and idiots like you (creationists, for example), and a very unscientific approach to interpreting the exact meaning of biblical text.

I tend to use science and other detectable evidence for assessing existential claims because things that exist tend to be detectable, and if they aren't, how do you know that they exist at all?
But this question isn't an existential claim, it's a moral one, and morality can be reasoned out using logic, since it doesn't exist in an objective sense. It's conceptual. This isn't a double standard, it's an acknowledgement that not all claims are the same kind of claim, and your snide derision, evidently without fully understanding what my position actually is, doesn't serve you well.
