In fact what you believe is divorced from everything we have good reason to believe. But you believe it fervently .. as if that were any recommendation for anyone else believing it. Like so many of the worst kind of xtians you lack all humility. You esteem your own unjustified impressions and opinions above those of everyone else. You ask us to put aside what we know and join you in feebly believing utter bullshit. No thanks asshole.
God always was.
Or so your sort is fond of saying. Would you have any problem with accepting that the physical preconditions for the universe too "always was"? That is what I think. The necessary preconditions for everything we see now have always existed. No starter necessary. If you are content to accept that anything "always was", why not the physical world and its antecedents?

You are basing your beliefs on that which you have decided most worthy of belief. You can't blame the bible for choosing to believe the bible. That ridiculous choice was your own. There is no way you can avoid responsibility for the choices you make. We all understand that what you really desire to do is to melt into God .. to abdicate every shred of separate existence for the greater glory of god. But unfortunately for you, that isn't possible, because 'God' as you understand it does not exist.

That may be the one true thing you've said. (Did you think we had any doubt about that which would necessitate your saying it?) In exactly the same way, there is no need to tell you how ridiculous your notion of god is, but I am determined to repay you in kind.
