Is your god finite or infinite?
You make people miserable and there's nothing they can do about it, just like god.

God has no place within these walls, just as facts have no place within organized religion.

Science is like a blabbermouth who ruins a movie by telling you how it ends. There are some things we don't want to know. Important things.

Once something's been approved by the government, it's no longer immoral.

At least you believe they existed once upon a time ago. And they were not God . just messengers.

I am an Absurdist, I do not believe in anything, I think the notion of believing is intellectual suicide. You make assumptions too easily which I think answers this thread perfectly.

Prerequisite for believing the unseen is logic. Imagine you are blind and can't see a thing. Would you believe a car can't stand on its own with 2 tires. So you would logic instead since u can't see . Then you draw a logical conclusion without even seeing. Since It makes sense you start believing it

"God" needs a middleman? What is he? Shy?

God is whatever the men who invented him want him to be. That goes for all variants of the angry desert god, too.

Kind of ironic since there are many atheists who make claims about religion for which there actually exists no evidence.....well evidence in the academic sense, which to be honest, is the only evidence that means a damn.
But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, purifies us from all sin.
