Does this prove that the blinded religious are totally incapable of responding to a rational argument?
Your strategy of avoiding truth is more than 2000 yrs. old Yadda.
It only works on the insignificant nice people sheeple of modern society.
Nobody believes in what you think your pissant God said to you.

Amadd,
The bible is an 'old book', it is reputedly an account of God's [our creators] interaction with a certain group of people.
[i believe that it is an accurate account]
And its content is an instructive account [a cautionary tale ?] of how wicked and evil man, or
a man [singular], can be.
But why study it ?
Amadd,
Nobody needs [to read] an old book to convince them, that it is the fate of almost all of us, that in our life, we will make some good choices in life and, sometimes we will repeatedly make poor choices.
We have a conscience for that.
"And what is good, Phaedrus?
And what is not good?
Need we ask anyone to tell us these things?"
- Plato
found in, Zen And The Art Of Motorcycle Maintenance
So why study/examine the content of that 'old book' ?
Because i have made a choice;
I want to be constantly reminded about my nature.
And [also], i have made the choice that i want to be guided by the knowledge that that old book contains.
Personally, i find that reading the contents of that 'old book', constantly allows me to re-focus my attention on what i consider to be important.
That is a choice that i deliberately make.Other people may choose another path, and they may make other choices.
That, is
their path.
Amadd,
I am opinionated and happy.

[some ppl say, very opinionated !!! hehe]
I am not confused.
I am not unhappy.

Like myself, you are free to believe, whatever you choose to believe.
And it will follow, that
what you believe, will be a guide to your path in this life.
So go your own way.
Walk your own path in this life.
Have a nice life.

Men invariably, choose their own path in this life.
All men.
Some men choose to discriminate, between what is good, and what is evil.
Other men, refuse to do so......
