But I did research and was astounded by how little evidence there is for biblical claims. When it comes down to it, I just don't see ANY reason to believe whole heartedly in the bible. I told my friend this but he doesn't agree. But to me, placing your "faith" and morals in a book that cannot be proven is logically insane. How do ever determine what's true or not?How do you want it to be proven? The model presented is coherent if you want to check it out. The reason to believe it is because it presents a way to get the most out of your life. Faith, in the Christian sense isn't blind... it's based on knowledge that you trust to be true and then act upon. For the clear thinking discerning what's true or not is quite straight forward.

Dawkins TGD is particularly ignorant of it's subject. Dawkins knows better but wouldn't cripple his cash cow.
