If he kills every child and fetus on earth, I applaud it as holy. Morality, absolute morality, resides in this ancient god, one of many, created by man.

Great answer .
Believing in books dated thousands of years , based on previous books that were themselves written thousands of years before it , is just denying the existence of evolution of humans and the universe itself , which both involve over time .
As evolution goes on , gods disappears .
Not many left , were getting there .
Just thinking how far behind societies were at that period , it just make no sense to adhere to the same principle .
Just 500 years ago people believed the earth was flat , some still do believes it today but doesn’t make it so …
And I should believe stuff over 2000 years ago without a shred of evidences while others claims the same , with other books (kuran, Torah ,etc ) ?
my goodness …
If at least all the religions could find the « real » truth between them to arrive at a consensus to only 1 ….then I guess the discussion would be easier .
For now the gods themselves aren’t even able to reach a consensus o0 ,shrug .
