      The clearest proof that the God of the New Testament doesn't exist is that He was unable to formulate the Bible in such a way that it wouldn't get co-opted by people with an agenda that runs contrary to His central message of tolerance and compassion.

        Why would God divinely inspire writers to write down the story he wants to tell, but not divinely inspire it to be copied and transmitted reliably. There are hundreds of thousands of differences between various biblical texts.

        Someone says that the Bible is literal truth. The only question then becomes which version of the Bible?

        Bart Ehrman goes into great detail in his YouTube channel.

      Not so fast. By my calculation, this means the Christian god is still 66% not racist. That’s not the best percentage, but it’s still a majority. /s

        What?

        God was all about wiping out entire ethnic groups due to the minor sleights of a few members.

        At best Trinity Megazord is 33% not racist
