Actually though this is a idea that can be understood through just reading, if you cared to ever do that, if not then you should refrain from making false statements about scripture.

I have read the bible from cover to cover. This is how I know that if there were a god, it had nothing to do with the bible and he bible has nothing to do with god. As I have said on countless occasions, if there is any truth at to the bible, it is simply a history of men parading around as gods in an effort to control the populace. I have also read the majority of your posts attempting to twist and contort the contents of the bible to suit your needs. If there were a god, it would be 100000000000+ times better than that warmongering tyrant in that piece of shit you so desperately cling to and defend.
You might have read it but you have never understood it, the Bible is God's word written by inspired men, inspired by the Holy Spirit. All atheist can do is refer to some ancient wars, wars that had a significant meaning to God's plan to redeem mankind. You ignore all the love and caring, peace and help God has given many in the scriptures. I'm not desperately clinging to anything, I grow in the knowledge of God daily, strengthen even by being here.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
