Don't you find it curious that the one true original god would have to write in stone a law that would prevent people from believing in other gods?
Where did these other gods come from?
Why would they believe in them, if the one true god had made Adam and Eve and they passed on the story of that single god... how did the others come about?
What was the one true god doing when those other gods were made up? sleeping on the job? and, a few hundreds of years later, had to do something about it?
I always find it funny that there is commonly a stage between deconverting from theist to atheist where a person will come to the conclusion that the god of their religion must have been made up entirely, but then they'll hold on to the concept of some form of god. If you look at it not as if there is a long history, but as if one man tells you he has discovered an omni-being just yesterday- he is the first person to ever be aware of the concept of god and he tells you first. Then you examine the claim and find that everything he says is baseless, so why would you then hold on to the concept of god?
