All revealed religions have a man turned into a God at their core. All claim to be the middle man between the creator and the created. All claim that man will suffer eternal torture if he does not follow the dictates they are delivering from God. None can offer any proof of their claims. No man who truly believed in God would make these claims. So yes, I do consider them Atheists. At least a true Atheist has the honesty to admit up front that he does not believe.

No man knows the true nature of God, and no man speaks for God. To claim otherwise is to be a liar.

I have no problem with religion. I do have a problem with those zealots who claim to be speaking for God while they empower themselves.

I believe those who prey on the superstitious and weak while claiming to be an agent for God are the true evil...not the imaginary demon called Satan.

Okay, I see where you're coming from. Thanks for explaining!

Neither Judaism or Islam ghave a man turned into a God. Prophets yes. The prophets of Israel did not do the things that a self promoted man would do. The prophet of Islam did.

Christianity has a God turned into a man. Not just a partner as Islam falsely claims of Christianity. But the Ancient of Days Himself, wrapped in Human Flesh, to redeem us from our sins.

The things that God has asked us to do boil down to walk humbly before Him and love your neighbor.

There is evidence. No religion has the kind of fulfilled prophecy that JudeoChristianity has. Our consciences speaks to the truth. The Spirit of God speaks the truth directly to our hearts. The miracles and eyewitnesses and secular accounts of those speak of God's confirmation of the prophets and Jesus.

I see that you are an ex-Muslim. I'm glad that you could see clearly enough to get out. But don't make the mistake of thinking all religions are man made. One is not.

Perhaps one clue that you should consider is this. If Islam is a false religion, then what religion did it most hate? And I realize that consideration of Judaism might be a little hard for you, but Christianity is the fulfillment of Judaism. And Islam has hated us both.
