The fact that these people think that this supposedly omnipotent, omnipresent, omniscient god of theirs is talking to them through a compilation of books.

Thank you.
In my analysis above, I forgot the question of why God needs missionaries? Or a book? Why could the book not be published all over the world, prior to the arrival of any missionaries?
Why was this book and all these prophets only from one small corner of the world? Why not have prophets in China, a civilization far more ancient and literate than ancient Judea?
That the book had to be written by human hands and carried all over the world by human hands is enough to attest that this religion is man-made.
