so he believes in something doesnt mean that it is


Name a single HISTORY book written while the HISTORY was still happening.... Just because a book was written AFTER someone "died" doesn't change the FACT that someone lived, breathed, spoke, walked, preached, etc.....does it? If that's so, then how did you learn about Christopher Columbus? He was long gone by the time you first heard his name, right? So therefore, the HISTORY books that you learned his name and life from in school are they fake? Are they wrong? Were they always written by the SAME author???? Does ANY of that change the FACT that Christopher Columbus was Spanish, Discovered America, and lived???? NOPE.
but it does mean that things are going to be out of proportion, its like when you think back on things from the past they arent the same as what they truly are. they seem a certain way in your mind but are different in reality.
So therefore the argument that since the Bible has many "authors" it's not valid or accurate doesn't make much sense, now does it? Since we all study HISTORY via data derived from all kinds of sources, places, and times in history itself. Many of the "authors" of books STILL in use today as totally accurate are long ago deceased. Does that make any of the info in the book all of a sudden false......NOPE.
i never said it was all of a sudden false now did i?


Again, name a single book written by ANY devine being. Just one.

There isn't a single one. Why? Because all religious books were written by followers and not the leaders. It is up to the reader to believe or not. That is part of the equation. The info is given to you and out of your own free will you CHOOSE to believe or dismiss it. That is part of the cycle of life. If you feel comfy NOT believing, go for it. Just don't do it because you feel "humans" are the ones delivering the message......READ the MESSAGE, forget about the delivery....READ the MESSAGE yourself. If it makes sense to you, believe. If it doesn't, move on and find something that does.
did i say there was one? i dont choose to not believe because of humans, i choose not to believe because i think there is no god, plain and simple
