It said "by the moon when it follows it". You can't interpret it as "the sun when it follows".
You see where I'm going? the book literally said something, but you insist on something else.
I can see that you don't know what I'm talking about. Pretty pointless when you can't follow the conversation.
If the book literally said something, the book literally got it wrong. The moon does not follow it (the sun).
I also see the same thing.
But as a final word in this: I again repeat my words "the night comes after the day".

What about atheists who claim they "abandoned belief because God is a killer"? are they disgusting, according to your own words?
Belief either is or isn't. A person may turn from a god because of said god's actions but that doesn't mean they stop believing in that god.
Lack of belief isn't due to actions or inactions. Lack of belief is due to lack of evidence of the very existence.
Atheists aren't mad at god. There's no god to be mad at.
You have your evidence that many atheists are mad at God.
While some may leave belief for lack of evidence, others leave it because they are simply mad and angry about him.

If a child can understand the word "perspective", then this verse will be very clear.
I am oblivious about grown ups who keep ignore the perspective thing.
