An excellent reason for non-racists not to believe in God.
Why blame the Bible on God? Has God ever actually said the Bible describes Him?
I don't understand how people go from shortcomings in the Bible to the conclusion that there must not be a God. Just because the Bible has problems doesn't mean that God also has problems. There are a lot more believers in God than just Christian ones.

Oh, I'd say God has plenty of problems.

Cool. We don't have to believe in the Bible either.
You can get back to preventing the end of the universe, Kev.
