Mentioning truth and reality in the same sentences As The Bible is absurd, As an atheist no I do not believe The Bible. I don't believe God-created everything out of magic, That is to say nothing 1st you must prove The Bible is true and/or authoritative. In 2000 years this has not been done so come back to the atheist when you have something of substance that is compelling enough to believe any of what The Bible and all of its absurdity says. The Bible quite simply just isn't true it's superstitious mythology a man made construct nothing more.

according to pew polls and gallup religion is throttling itself, it's so full of poppycock people are not bothering. if you stayed in church and just kept yourself to yourself it might last a bit longer, but interfering with the way people - including christians - want to lead their lives is the death of religion. look up the figures, it's snowballing how fast religion is becoming unpopular. poor old god, gonna be all alone soon. same with islam, it's growing cos people are scared to say they hate it, but hate it they do.

Also goes onto say that in the following 6 days God created everything else. That’s not right either, he created sea creatures and man only in those 6 days, all other things were made. There is a massive difference between “created” and “made” Google the difference between created and made then read genesis 1 upto 2:3 Gen 2:3 rested from all his work which he had “created” AND “made” Heaven and earth could be millions, billions, trillions of years old, we cannot know biblically. Man and sea creatures biblically are approx 6000 but heaven and earth are unknown.

There are really only 2 kinds of faith in this world. The first being man can through some work of his own become acceptable to God, or deserving of Heaven. The other is Biblical Christianity that teaches man can do nothing to be truly righteous or deserving of Heaven so God himself had to provide a perfect sacrifice to pour out His justice on so that through that sacrifice He may show mercy to those He chooses.
