Gottcha 
Written texts said Jesus rose from the dead. I believe those texts. Just like you believe other texts from that era or any other.
There are written texts that say Dionysus, Osiris, and Tammuz rose from the dead. Your god isn't the first to have that claim made about them. I don't believe those texts either because I don't trust hearsay to be reliable.

Not really. It is a dumb question. God can do anything ...he wants to do.
Like learn a new thing God wasn't previously aware of?
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.

Well right, exactly. God wants you to direct your own life.
So what's this "we must rely on God for all our needs" folderol, then?

So what's this "we must rely on God for all our needs" folderol, then? We always have free will, whether we put our trust in God or not. God will take of our needs, but our dreams, aspirations, and desires, are our own to work with.

People need food, people are starving to death in many countries, example Africa. They worship god. Did god decide those people don't deserve to live?
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
