For a Christian the Bible is their ultimate authority. It is God’s revelation. The Word of truth. It is that Word of God that clearly rendered the judgment regarding the atheistic worldview that I quoted. So to question my capability to understand what is in your thinking is moot. I do understand, however, because you have made it painfully obvious, that you deny that "all Scripture is breathed out by God" and especially "don't like" the verdict that is written in God’s Word against unbelievers. BTW how can you know that God has said nothing about you if, according to you, there is no God that can say anything? Self-contradictory? Your certainty about what God says and your certainty that that God doesn't exist is self-refuting. It appears that you have revealed that the Scriptures are true when it says that the unbeliever suppresses that innate knowledge that God does exist. But sometimes they inadvertently let it out.
But while there is life there is hope.
So yes, I clearly understand that you subscribe to scripture -- and will accept scripture over actual evidence in the real world. This seems odd to me, but who am I to argue?
However, whatever I say, I back up with arguments from the real world, the only world I know, and the only one I can validate. You back up every scriptural argument with more scripture, all of which you accept as true because, well, heck, because it says it true, and why would it lie?
But when I read scripture, I find such nonsense that I can only conclude it was written by humans, and not only by humans, but by lots of different humans who neither conferred with nor agree with one another, who had little knowledge of the way the world works or the human mind works, and who were not at all averse to making things up when it suited them, to add colour and excitement to an otherwise boring and unconvincing narrative.
Let me give an example: those whom God wished to be dead. Now, first, we consider the flood, in which God himself did the dirty work, killing everybody on earth, including the new-born and unborn who are surely innocent (and all the land animals and insects into the bargain), with the exception of 8 supposedly really exceptionally good people. People who, let us not forget, just about immediately prove themselves to be not so exceptionally good once the flood's behind them.
Later, God decides that Egypt needed a little punishment, and so contrives (with absolutely spectacular aim) to kill only those who were the first-born -- proving, by the way, that he didn't need to kill everybody during the flood at all, he just couldn't be bothered working out something a little more judicious, a little fairer than a flood that kills the innocent along with the guilty.
Oh, and then, when he decides that the Canaanites have to go, he orders Joshua to slay them all (perhaps God doesn't want to dirty his own hands anymore?), boys, men, animals, women -- except the virgin girls. (Oooh, I really think this was written by men, not God. It seems so typical -- but hey, what do I know?) Anyway, I'm sure God only the best intention for those virgin girls, and no doubt they all gave consent before they were ..... whatevered.
And the David commits a naughty naughty by getting Bathsheba's hubby Uriah killed because he has (rather rudely) knocked her up. And God, who really ought to know about justice, punishes David how? By killing him? No -- by killing the child: slowly, over 7 days.
Like it or not, this is all scripture -- and it is all scripture used every day by Christians. But put it all together, as a unified whole in your mind, as I have, and try to visualize this God you so admire?
When I do that, I can come to very few conclusions -- that God doesn't exist, period end of story, or the scriptures that lead to what I see are really not much better than any other work of humans beings, however well-motivated. And I am willing to be that Gautama, Mohammed and Karl Marx were all well-motivated, too. But I don't accept their works as all perfectly true, either.
