It's a weird god that demands loyalty, and will punish you for not following him, but also won't bother trying to have a relationship with you unless you're in the proper mindset. You have to drink the koolaid for it to make any sense.
Every other creature, man or animal, who has ever wanted something from me has sought me out and made themself known first. That's how it works. I'm living my life just fine so far, and if you want to be a part of it you have to take the initiative. Don't blame me for ignoring you if you never introduced yourself.
To hear my highschool classmates tell it, there were apparently like 10-15 girls who were into me, yet I never dated anyone in highschool because these girls who supposedly thought I was cute never bothered to say hi.

You'd think it'd be possible to just whip up a better class of salesman, if there were no suitable candidates on earth. Blowing the dirt, or however it is he makes people.

I think Daniel is an excellent candidate for God's messenger.
Don't know about you guys, but I never expected much better from God in the first place.

I disagree. I distinctly remember there being some pitch about a davidic king crushing the world under foot. That, would be a good salesman.

Wow, you Christians really have boring lives if you have nothing better to do on a Friday night than try to harass atheists. Do you really think anyone on this forum hasn't heard what your saying before or has trouble understanding the concepts you present? The vast majority used to lead your lifestyle, and yet are still here. Theres a reason for that.

Is this the best your god can do, Daniel?
Kinda weak, no?
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

I can quote things too.
Quote:

Quote:If you want nothing to do with God, then God will have nothing to do with you (hence, God giving people over to a reprobate mind).
You want to know God, then you turn to Him! According to this passage, He is faithful to turn to you.
How do you turn to God?
The only way to the Father is through the Son.
You cannot have the Father unless you have the Son.
Turning to God means to have faith in His Son, Jesus Christ.
Denying Jesus means God will NOT turn to you.
If you profess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you shall be saved.
For with the heart man believes unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
Are you truly so small minded that you're completely unaware of Christian deconversion? People who used to believe in this babble wholeheartedly but chose to follow logic and evidence -in this case a lack thereof of the latter.
I'll be waiting for the No True Scotsman, but maybe you'll surprise me.

There is no god. Your wholly babble is moronic and offensive, and your gawd is a vicious monster.
its bad logic to say God doesn't exist because He's not what I think He should be.
I think he should exist. Therefore it is not bad logic to say God does not exist because he is not what I think he should be.
Please, don't ever insult the word logic by letting it pass your Jesus cock sucking lips.

No. They are figments of your imagination.
You have to constantly make excuses for why they never do anything. How powerful can they be if they need your help?
I don't worship anyone, it's an obscene concept. So I don't even care if these weird tyrants are real, I'm not interested.

Then give us a description of your god and evidence that it exists.
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.
