First, I will state that this is a good friend of mine that claims research changed his faith....If you are given a choice of eather worshiping a higher power, or face an eternity of torture and suffering, this is NOT free will, it a Hierarchy. I'm sorry, but if the Bible is truth, then I choose to be the martyr of individuality. The ggod of the Bible, in every case he shows his presence death and destruction follows. I choose not to follow any one or anything that wreaks death, suffering, destruction, jealousy, and vengeance and call it love and compassion. CHALLENGE FOR CHRISTIANS: show me one verse in the entire Bible where God's actions actually show love or compassion, I'm not talking Jesus, I'm talking God, good luck. Note: according to biblical evidence, the Devil killed 8 people, God killed millions
