What I asked was, "Who are you to question a god?".

I am a man who has mental facilities, a conscience, a heart, a knowledge or right and wrong, and a knowledge of the one true God that exists.

"Sorry I didn't believe in you God, but I thought the crazy stupid and irrational Gods were as likely to exist as you, Gods being God and me a mere man and all that."

Ok, we'll see how that works for you!

As I suspected, you are your own god - you must have the last word, you are the final arbiter, you alone determine meaning.

Just like everyone else.

"What I asked was, "Who are you to question a god?"."

I don't buy the "you can't evaluate god(s) because they are god(s).

The real God constantly extends an invitation for people to seek Him and promises to answer if they do. He doesn't expect blind faith, but instead invites people to come reason together with Him. You think that there is no evidence for God and that He is unknowable. Both assumptions couldn't be farther from the truth.

Promises to Seekers - too numerous to post here

Isaiah 1:18 Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.

Isaiah 55:1 Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye to the waters, and he that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price. 2 Wherefore do ye spend money for that which is not bread? and your labour for that which satisfieth not? hearken diligently unto me, and eat ye that which is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness. 3 Incline your ear, and come unto me: hear, and your soul shall live; and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the sure mercies of David.

Rev 3:20 Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.
