Fiction you say, I disagree.

You're entitled to your opinion. If you want to claim it as true, bring some hard evidence.

Have you any evidence that this God exists?

There are many people who believe in big foots. Have said they have seen them, yet, we have 0 evidence they exist. Things written in books are not evidence of a supernatural being. To think otherwise, is blind faith. The same faith many humans believe in other religions such as Hinduism, Shintos, Buddhism etc.
Nope
Nope never happened
The world and all that is therein. Of course you probably think the world came about from a big bang or something along those lines. and you are entitled to that theory.

Actually, I make no judgement as to the origin of our world and our existence. But, I will take more scrutinized information from science, than an old book of fiction.

Revelation written over 1900 years ago( give or take) has been passing before the worlds eyes for quite awhile now. Nearing its end.

Although you utilize hyperbole to an absurd degree, all you've indicated is that Science polices itself well. Unlike, say, Religion, one cannot simply make up scenarios in Science and declare them as true. They must be able to be replicated by others and consistently achieve the same result.

If they do not, then they are relegated to the dustbin of history.

Your 30,000+ denominations do not exactly testify to a coherent message from your would-be godling.

They can't all be right.

But they most certainly can be -and in MO are - all wrong.

Especially your glazed-eyed, robotic 1-percenters.
