When atheists argue against the existence of God and bash the Bible while doing it.  

 God can exist even if the Bible not true.  

 Unless the argument is specifically about the Bible and religion, I don't want to hear about it.  If you don't believe in God, say why.  Don't say "the Bible isn't real," because that doesn't make God non-existent.


The Bible is the only real "evidence" put forward for God's (Jehovah's) existence. No refutation beyond the Bible is necessary. If someone gives you a fake I.D. to prove a man's existence, why should you argue the point beyond proving the I.D. fake? Sure, the man could still exist. But if the only evidence for him is the I.D., what exactly does that chance matter?


The Bible is not evidence of the existence of God. It's a 'guide book', a maintenance manual, so to speak, for the Christian religion. And an explanation of what and why Christians believe.

Is a science book 'evidence' for evolution or the 'Big Bang' or any other "natural" phenomenon? No, it's simply a book filled with words that give one an understanding of those concepts. If no book of science had ever been written, would that change the reality of any of those occurrences? If the biblical God does exist, would the absence of a Bible actually affect His existence?
