I read the Bible as an atheist and I didn't think it proved God, it just showed that people believed in Him. You will find God when throw out everything you know about God and you discover the true meaning of "Grace".
Which problems?
You developed your own god and attributed properties to him that you feared.
No, it was the God described to me in the Bible and by an assortment of family members, Baptist clergy, Sunday school teachings etc. I simply took them at their word.
You didn't know God;
You have no clue what my religious experiences were. To this day I count them as some of my most important experiences in life. There is nothing to compare to the awe one feels in the presence of his God.

Hmmm. Interesting. I am not an atheist though and have less patience for atheists than I do for believers.
