Realistically, how do you maintain such a positive belief in a being that only causes harm and never ever intervenes to save anyone?

Certainly, there are stories of people being saved, but that was not the work of any divine being.

It is always quite telling how the theistic mind works.

Thank god for that which your limited mind accepts as truth, yet not blame god when he does not come through for you.

It is easy enough to blame.

It is harder to accept the reality.

If god can save one person yet ignore the lives of others, is it really god?

Or is it that we have this preconceived notion guiding us?

If god was real, he would save everyone, and he doesn't save everyone.

Do you think you can prove all that ? 

Do you think you are made of cells and your cells control you and you are their slave ?

I have proven it. It's called reality. Join it sometime.

I'm not the one who believes they are a slave to cells, who do you think is foolish thinking about that ?

Compare that to thinking about the subject of absolute truth, is this man lying ?

The same as the popular meaning you've not appeared to know.

Try harder, because you are presenting yourself as someone unreliable.

Do you not believe the popular definition of absolute truth ?
