I can't wait till the new dark ages and religious inquisitions start. We finally get to kill them back! OH! What bloody fun it will be. The "ungodly" things I will do to these fucking religious cock suckers! For Copernicus, Galileo, Newton and the hundreds of thousands who are forgotten. I will peel their religious flesh from the bone with my teeth and send their souls to their god with a bomb!

"Is this a concerning issue found within the New testament?"
We are still cursed aren't we? Do not people still die? Is not child birth still painful?
You are a very silly person to say "This isn't the NEW testament" like it's a different god being talked about. Sheesh.

My biased terms? Demanding proof of your assertions is biased is it?
You are the one positing there is a god with absolutely no proof to go by. It is your (the various Theists) definitions that are routinely rejected by Atheists due to the lack of evidence.
An Agnostic is undecided. I have very much decided that as you have absolutely no proof you are simply making things up...

If you do not know what god is how can you begin to analyse it? You cannot...
Not defining reality? Reality is what is around us and can be tested and observed. Ants are real, god is not; unless you care to prove otherwise...

"The first basis of the bible has a god cursing hte race of men for the crimes of 2 people. "
Is this a concerning issue found within the New testament? We both know it's not. Also, this assumes the Old Testament was the actual word of God and so God is a malevolent entity. However, many of you atheists deny the reliability of the Bible, especially the OT, so other perspectives that man has failed to interpret God in credible and accurate form is just as credible (Deism).

"Your comment here presumes god to be something you can cannot know for certain, which makes this whole comment void of logic."
Only on your biased terms. Why is it "void" to presume that God is unknowable given the immense scripture of mono-theistic religions that all refrain the same poetic phrase - God is eternal and beyond our reach. Atheists vehemently deny such characteristics of God because they know God is inherently unknowable, thus, agnosticism is more rational in this regard.

"If I created an ant farm I would still be in the same reality as the ant farm "
You're not defining what is reality, and for the purposes of this discussion, you must leave out semantics. You also can't assume an omniscient God to dwell in what you define as our ultimate reality (existence under natural laws), because you're just making an assumption. You're begging God to exist under spacial restrictions when an analysis of God goes beyond that.

"that avoids one answer and doesn't even address the other. "
When answers are out there, you're always questioning them when the answers are given to you. If the Bible is the Word of God for this day and age, why not evaluate it yourself? What's to be scared of? Even if that evaluation brings us to embrace something else.. isn't truth the ultimate goal? If holding on to preconceived notions is the tenet of atheism then you have to seriously evaluate the way you think.

persist in your belief and correct those who ask questions.
