Drich, your whole approach to this sounds circular and void.
Why do you believe in the god of the bible? (this includes believing that the bible is the 100% accurate and true word of god)
Because ASKing brought you to that conclusion.
Why do you believe that ASKing is a reliable
way of knowledge?
Because the Bible (Luke 11) says so.
Those four lines above are not a strawman and I'm sorry if they might look like one, rather it's genuinely what I could understand from what you have been saying.
Now, my question is, where is the hard evidence that the responses you get from ASKing are not delusional and caused by confirmation bias and circular reasoning? In other words, how is what you are saying different from the four lines I just wrote?

"Every luxury has a deep price. Every indulgence, a cosmic cost. Each fiber of pleasure you experience causes equivalent pain somewhere else. This is the first law of emodynamics [sic]. Joy can be neither created nor destroyed. The balance of happiness is constant.
Fact: Every time you eat a bite of cake, someone gets horsewhipped.
Facter: Every time two people kiss, an orphanage collapses.
Factest: Every time a baby is born, an innocent animal is severely mocked for its physical appearance. Don't be a pleasure hog. Your every smile is a dagger. Happiness is murder.
Vote "yes" on Proposition 1321. Think of some kids. Some kids."
