Before, i just said that i do not trust the letter to the word. No matter what, we know the bible was written by man. There is no way in hell, that the bible we read today is the same exact bible God wanted us to read back then. Even if he lies to us, what if we never realized it? then would it matter if he lied to us? just because we realize it, it does not make his love or forgiveness any less than what it was before. You sound like i am just a 10 year old looking for some reason for why my God does bad things. I am not, there is no emotion, i can accept that my God does not exist for your information. Its just that, i still believe, and will always believe, that even if he is not real, if the world were to follow his sons word, then we would turn out great. There is nothing absurd about wanting a heaven when you die, people need it.

I apologize if I come off condescending, I don't intend it. I'm just trying to understand what you are saying.
If God doesn't exist, then why should anyone care what the Bible says? Even if there's good stuff in it, it becomes just an ordinary book of rules if there is no divine authorship. If there's no God, we have no reason to believe there is forgiveness for anything, or the existence of a heaven.
And just how did you come to the conclusion that there is "no way in hell" that the Bible we read today is the same exact Bible God wanted us to read back then? I'm curious.

People need to know that there is a God above, the civilization we live in is not ready for to admit there is no God (that is just if there is no God). However, i still believe there is God because believing in him is worth doing.
I came up with that, because the bible has been translated over 50 times and there is just no way that the bible we read today is exact to one God wanted us to read.

If you truly believed that then you would be studying all religions.
