If the christian (or muslim) god did exist (which they clearly don't) then
(a) It is a dick
(b) I wouldn't worship it
It's about as close to perfect as I am to slam dunking while sitting down.
And as I've made threads about before, even if you take "just looking at stuff" as evidence for god, all that gives you is some sort of god. There is no justification for then just inserted your own god into this, based on some old book written by ignorant war mongers.
There was a great thing I heard on an edition of The Atheist Experience, it went something like this: "The Bible is exactly what you would expect to see if a bunch of people 2000 years ago wrote a book about stuff they knew, and trying to write about a god." How can you possibly tell the difference between a book written by these idiots, and one which is somehow magically imbued with truth? Urgh, it boggles my brain how that book has brainwashed so many people. Or rather, how it has been used to brainwash people. Funny thing is, most christians haven't even read it properly. I wonder how many know what the real 10 commandments are? They are not the ones that are inserted into courthouses and other public places against the first amendment. The real ones, you know, the ones carried around in the ark. The ones that weren't smashed up. Check it out.
