But as to your opinion of who, given the two of us, knows God better, I'd say you've proven that you don't know God at all and that the reason is you've overtly rejected him... you've proven that at least a half dozen times in this exchange ALONE! But God's given you the right to make that decision and he's made it clear that all actions have consequences and the consequences for your actions are HEAVY! And if you're good with that; while I hate to see someone disrespect the Father, there's not much I can do about it, until such time that such becoems a discernable threat to me or someone in my immediate presence... so I'll just encourage you to keep posting, given that no one proves what an atheist is all about better than an atheist.

Ive never rejected him, you've only assumed that. I'm agnostic. Regardless of my rejecting or accepting him, neither means you know him better than I because you know not what you have accepted. You are just as ignorant of the nature of god as I. If there is a god, I believe he's more interested in rewarding those who show themselves as capable of free, rational thinking, and not blind devotion to something they know nothing about. That is unless god is only interested in mindless worshipers, in which case I have no interest in this god. For this reason, I'm entertained with the thought that god put the bible on the earth just to see who will blindly follow it, and then cast those people asside as bad apples.
So it comes down to this. You, in your blind delusions, somehow think you know what makes god tick, and because this god is the final authority, that's that. There is nothing that will change your mind.
To argue with a person who has renounced the use of reason is like administering medicine to the dead.
