    If you believe in God and science empirically proved God didn’t exist, would you still believe?

    If you don’t believe in God, and science empirically proved God exists, would you start to worship it?

    I don’t believe God exists. But if he was proven to exist, I would believe. I would not, however, worship him. Dude’s a prick.

        I mean, if Yahweh exists it’s not that the story is full of holes so much as that he was part of the Canaanite pantheon and the stories were never originally meant to describe the actions of a singular god.

        There is likely a whole mythological cycle that we simply do not have because it was destroyed by zealots for disproving their weird monotheistic fan fiction.

        It’s like trying to make sense of the Norse sagas if cultists merged all the other gods into Odin, including Loki.

      The bible should be considered a book of gossip, like an old hollywood rag and accorded such due respect
