Are some of these stories more believable that others ? Sure.

Is the story of Muhammad or Joseph Smith more valid than the story of Moses ?

Lack of reading comprehension is strong with this one.

Where in my post do you find it stated or inferred that Muhammad or Joseph claimed to be God ?

Perhaps you should start to consider re-taking kindergarden !

Yep, reading comprehnsion going back to the definition of the Abrahamic faiths ... whom all worship the same God. Yet you make delineations ... for the multiple Gods which are actually one.

And then jump to Prophets!

Well, we know you are the real Prophet of God - so good luck founding your own religion!

Perhaps you should stop smoking weed or whatever it is that is blocking your short term memory processes!

It’s as or more likely.
The universe is the way it is because that’s how things are.

Is more simplified then the universe is the way it is because god was the way it needed to be to make it the way it is because that’s how things are

it’s not impossible for god to exist and make the universe for a purpose of its own

But it’s not necessary and it’s just as unlikely the right kind of god would just happen to exist to make us. So as an argument that god must exist or is more likely to exist the teleological argument fails

While still happily for you not disproving god

The topic is stories about God and whether one is more valid than the other. These stories come from Prophets such as the ones mentioned and from other places about other Gods.

In the case of Joseph Smith, Muhammad, and Moses .. same God but different stories.

Do you believe all the stories about the God of Abraham and stories about other Gods ?

And why would I disprove God?

Wow three different Prophets have three different stories! What a shock!!!

Guess that means the Abrahamic God is the same as ... Gods plural. Certainly explains your Christianity.

See #2.

Sometimes, those prayers are indeed answered.

the % of those prayers "answered" is vanishingly small.

How about all those people who go to the televised prayer meeting and somebody like Ernest Ansley or Bennie Hin supposedly heals people with all kinds of afflictions thru prayer. Are those miracles, and if so, how come there is absolutely no verifiable evidence of the efficacy of this approach?

Because it works on faith, not science.

So, because YOU don't control them, they are not real?

There are plenty of stories about Gods other than the God of Abraham.

The question is what is the validity of these stories ?

Do you think some are more valid than others ?
