If a story book is evidence that the characters in it are real and the events actually happened, without anything else to back it up, then every book ever written has to be taken seriously as describing real characters and events.
A story book is evidence of nothing, except how bad the thing you worship is. I've only read the bible myself, and by jolly there's plenty more to hate in there than to like. Why do all the horrific atrocities that god commits never get read out?
Could god do whatever plan he has in mind without having to have all the suffering in the world? Could he make it so that you enjoy good things just as much without having to have bad things to compare them to?
The only people in the world who actually take their morals from books like the bible and act on them are considered extremists and would quickly go to jail for what they are doing (in any civilized country). Every other "believer" picks and chooses their morals and actions from the bible, in other words they disregard it and just do what they think is right anyway. Easy examples: slavery, stoning your children to death for being unruly, rape not a big deal and you can hand out your daughters to be raped... If you actually follow precisely how the bible tells you to act, you would be the worst kind of person.
Jesus came to save us from "our sin", and our sin only exists because god (which is also jesus) decided that we have sin. So he is saving us from himself, by sacrificing himself, to himself. That's not a story that even makes sense, let alone has any evidence for it.
Easy question: Is god trying to communicate with us in any way? If yes, then it is the worst attempt ever at communication as it plays out exactly the same as no one trying to communicate.
