Drich #1 Wrote:I am working on the premise that God is real and put this book in our life. Therefore it is on Him to protect its content or forgive us for following it.
Drich #2 Wrote:The deal here is, I followed the bible and found what I was promised. In doing so I have verified the validity of the book. Now I am responsible for it's contents. (Whatever it says.)
Of the above, which happened first for you?
If it was #1, then #2, that would be circular reasoning. If it was in reverse, what even made you think you'd see results? Not having #1 to begin with means that you would've been in the *same boat* as me, since you agreed with my position (in the event that you were an Atheist). *So*, that makes me think you've always had the belief in God first, which means your reasoning is just as valid as that of a Muslim, or Hindu, or any other religious person already convinced that their interpretation of the divine is right ergo their Holy book is the truth.
