What would it take for you to believe there isn't a God?

[OzmO]

I don't know that there is anything for me.

Yes; people who are unwilling to revise their opinions in light of evidence, regardless of its nature. You just said you are one of them.

I've never had a problem admitting that my belief in god is based solely on faith. 

I wonder if i should retitled the thread:

What would it take for you to believe the bible isn't the 100% WOG.

What would it take for you to believe the bible isn't the 100% WOG.

It’s the “lost in translation” principle.

Look how much of the Bible’s stories were passed on/down by word of mouth during it’s inception.

Most of us played the game in school where someone told the person next to them a short statement. Then they told the person next to them, and so on.

After about 8-10 kids, that short statement became very distorted.

Now, substitute short statement with Old & New Testament.
Then substitute 8-10 kids with people of entire lands.

See my point?
I’m not arguing that the Bible isn’t the word of God.
But I am suggesting that there may be (more than) some inaccuracies in it.
They even told us that in Catholic School.

This is what would it take for me not to believe in any god:

1. a total lack of evidence, in spite of several thousand years of priests and theologians looking for it.

2. gods depending on magic, such as coming back to life or flying into the sky or being born without any penis-pussy action, or other patently false stories

3. gods that are supposedly all-powerful and compassionate letting millions die of starvation, AIDS, disease, and genocide in Africa, or by tsunamis in Asia.

4. gods that used to talk from burning bushes and hold the sun still, and now disguise themselves as black holes in the nether regions of the universe.

5. gods that stop existing once people stop worshiping them, like Zeus and Baal

6. -----

Wait. I don't need to go on any further.

There almost certainly are no gods
