He gave them Oral Tradition which is far more accurrate than modern writing. You see, Oral Tradition wasn't like the game of telephone at all. In ancient Hebrew society aspiring priests were made to memorize every story word by word, before becoming a priest. After becoming a priest if they told the story differently by just a single word, they were executed. And luckily for the Hebrews, God also gave them a langauge which was so perfect that it remained the same over a thousand years. Unlike poor primitive english which has older versions that modern people can barely understand (shakespeare), ancient Hebrew and modern Hebrew are IDENTICAL! And that's why they could pass the flood story down through the ages without changing a single word, and still understand it perfectly hundreds of years later! We know all this thanks to the hard work of proffessor I.M. Right from Baby Jesus University. 

Ok real talk time. 

There's more proof from 2000 years ago. Jesus predicted the world was going to end before the lifetimes of his original followers ended. This is recorded in the Mini-Apocalypse of Mathew, Mark and Luke. Obviously the world is still turning and Jesus was wrong. But if he was wrong he wasn't God. 

If God doesn't exist, there is no wrong or right. If God exists, there is wrong (what God diskes) and right (what God approves) and there are consequences for both.

Not sure what your settings are, but scroll up or go back one page. I already refuted that argument completely. 

killing was wrong in nazi germany? or the soviet union? or the middle ages? is killing wrong now where america is given free license to bomb countries till they collapse killing millions of people at a time?

you appear to be fairly ignorant of history and the world around you

I see the world as godless to begin with so if I somehow got confirmation that there was no god it wouldn't matter to me because it would fit exactly into understanding of the world.

If the existence of a god was proven then it would be quite significant to me, I'd want to find out more about it, even if it turned out that god didn't care one bit about the universe and had no afterlife and such, I'd still be interested in how such a thing exists and what it does.

But if god did turn out to be just the guy who switched the universe on and left it alone then it probably wouldn't make a difference to many people, some might abandon religion but I doubt most would given that religion is still strong despite how much science can undermine, disprove and oppose it already. Perhaps we could gain some important knowledge that we could later utilise from investigating god though.

This is very hypothetical though because exactly what god is, if it was discovered, is not certain.

i wasn't talking specifically about the bible with regards to why god is important for morality

but regardless i do believe a lot of the stories in the bible are misinterpreted and are allegories for deeper meanings that we've lost comprehension of

What is your objective method of determining which parts of the bible are allegory, and which parts are literal? 

Paul converses with Peter and James (brother of Jesus), the latter became the first leader of the church of Jerusalem, so there were authority figures to validate teachings.

well I suppose you'll think that way until you are the one that ends up being oppressed... what makes you think btw that the human race will never reach a time in the future where our morals are corrupted to the point they were in the middle ages?

Scientifically speaking we are just a configuration of atoms and atoms don't care what configuration they are in so scientifically morality doesn't matter and it only matters to yourself. Since we could easily imagine a different configuration of atoms that had a completely different morality technically morality is completely arbitrary. You can't even appeal to evolution and Biology because atoms existed before DNA and atom didn't care before whether they would be arranged in a DNA and that the pattern would extended and they won't care after when DNA ceases to exist.

Only people care and people are their own unique configurations of atoms so if your an atheist it is pointless to wonder whether God existence is important or to even ask for proof of Gods existence because you can't even proof that you exist.

Say you were cut in half vertically and almost instantaneously through extremely advanced technology each half was fixed to regenerate their missing halves. Now which one is you? Using this one example it becomes clear that there is no logical or scientific construction that can prove your existence apart from the configuration of your atoms. So there could be a million copies of you all exactly the same and there would be no way for you to tell the difference.

So you can't even prove your own existence as a individual entity let alone the existence of God there are only atoms that will eventually ease to exist. One atom isn't any more important than any other. So as long as you who are mere configurations of atoms, which aren't any important then each individual atoms, continue to exist; don't fool yourself that you know anything. If you did know anything it would just be an accident based on the random motion of atoms based on the pointless unpredictable reality of quantum mechanics, so you can't actually prove anything because there is no fundamental reality that can distinguished between configurations of atoms that can know truth and those that don't. Because after all what reason is there that everything that you know could have been different, the whole universe could have been different.

Of course that is unless you reject the fundamental premise that there is nothing but atoms and energy. But then what would that be. If you are still reading this and are an atheist ask yourself why would you reply? Why does anything matter. Why would one configuration of atoms that has no control of its own configuration's past and consequently its future, attempt to try and change the configuration of another set of atoms when you can't prove that one configuration is more important than another?
