What outside of the Bible tells us that it is the word of God?

  • Atheism exist's because of people's pride.
  • So that don't have to obey God's rules.
  • So that they don't have to obey there Father and Mother.
  • So that they can watch Porn.
  • So that can show that there cool.

[NB:  I bolded your errors for you, except for line #2, where I inserted the words you left out. No need to thank me.  You made 9 errors in a post of only 39 words.  This makes your fuck up percentage a smidge over 23%.  Impressive.]

#1.  Well, people, including atheists, certainly have pride, but ours isn't a patch on the blindingly idiotic arrogance of believers who have the hubris to think they intimately understand the heart and mind of the creatrix of the universe.

#2.  Fair point, but limited.  As an atheist, I don't have to obey God's rules.  Which is just as well, as I have no desire to set fire to oxen or to murder disobedient children.  But I'm not an atheist so I don't have to obey God's rules.  I'm an atheist in part because God's rules are mind-numbingly stupid.

#3.  Bzzt.  I love, honour, respect and obey my parents.  Not because your mythic God orders me to do so.  I do it because my parents are worthy of love, honour, respect and obedience.

#4.  Seriously?  With all the Christian perversion in the world, you think that atheism is a requirement for watching porn?

#5.  Yup, people see me walk down the street and say, 'See that guy?  He's an atheist.  He is soooo cool!'  In fact, my atheism makes me so cool that people used to throw rocks through my windows to express their admiration of my incredible coolness.

There is a difference between the kind of pride that God hates (Proverbs 8:13) and the kind of pride we feel about a job well done.

How do you know it's the word of your pet god, or any god?

And if you can stop with the clichés and the preaching, we'll be grateful.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

Randy, how do we know that the Bible is correct and not the napkin?

again,pride Psalm 10:4 explains that the proud are so consumed with themselves that their thoughts are far from God: “In his pride the wicked does not seek him; in all his thoughts there is no room for God.” This kind of haughty pride is the opposite of the spirit of humility that God seeks: “Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven” (Matthew 5:3).

Explain how this tells us that the Bible is the word of God? And while you are at it, explain how there can even be archaeological evidence that the Bible is the word of God.

There is no scientifically credible evidence of any miracles occurring. There are always simpler explanations.

You have absolutely no reason to believe that the Bible is the word of God.

Proverbs 8:13 states that God hates pride and arrogance.  It does not differentiate the types of pride.

Question:  If I can find Bible verses which indicate that God hates morbid stupidity, will you be afraid of going to hell?

My question was very specific. Why then did you need to quote from your book?
