(33,982 posts)You could prove the existence of the Abrahamic god 8 ways till sunday, have him pop up and introduce himself to me, etc, and that's all fine..
I would still have zero faith in it. I would have a great deal of fear of it, given its own proclaimed track history of killing people for trivial issues like 'you're on the wrong piece of land and I promised it to someone else'. I would have a considerable amount of fear based on its proclaimed desire to torture me for all eternity for not investing faith or allegiance in it.
But no, I wouldn't have any faith in it at all. That god can exist all day long, but it doesn't make it a morally acceptable thing to invest my faith in. It's a vicious, petulant, cruel, and selfish thing. I have no use for it, and I will not invest faith in it, should it be proven real.
If it were proven real, I would immediately set about trying to find ways to destroy it in self defense. Does that sound like 'faith' to you?
