Let's keep in mind that, so far, two world wars have been started by Christians, who also designed, built, and ran the Nazi death camps. Credit where credit is due.
No Christian has been known to ask why God invented death and thereby bears responsibility for the demise of every human who has ever lived. Including the righteous.
If God exists, then religion doesn't need to. If God has existed since before space and time, created everything, is omnipotent, and omniscient, knows where every speck of matter and energy came from, where they are at every instant, and when and where they will cease to exist, then God also knows every single thing that anyone will ever do, say, or think, and knew this before the universe itself existed, so there is no need for prayer, let alone religion. But if prayer and religion are needed, then the whole show has to get along just fine without God, who therefore is irrelevant, and is a flimsy fabrication.
I've never had the need to pray to gravity to keep my feet on the floor, so what's the deal with praying to God to keep things ticking? Isn't God smarter than the force that makes urine run down the gutter?
If Jesus died because of your sins, then don't you have a toxic personality? I mean. Really.
