And it's logical to believe in some all-powerful creator who has no involvement
in the lives of his precious creations? It's logical to believe in a God who
says, "I love you so much, when you die, I'll bring up with me in Heaven, but
if you are bad, I'll burn you in Hell for the rest of eternity?"
It's logical to belive that the Earth is only 6000 years old?
No, it's not logical to believe in a single magical creator how waves his magic
wand and suddenly the universe springs up.

So what's the point in even worrying about him?

I started this whole conversation off with, "God does not exist. Discuss."
It was a troll - a very successful one. And it's funny to watch you
half-baked Christians try to come up with proof for God that doesn't come out
as, "God exists because I believe he does."
