    Some credible evidence would do nicely.

    Nothing.

    Why would anybody worship the mythical god Yahweh of the Bible? He lies, cheats, and kills with impunity. But, he says that he loves us!

    Why should anybody believe anything from the Bible? It was written by primitive men who believed that the Earth was flat and covered by a large solid dome called the firmament.

    The Bible is full of doctrines and examples that civilized people reject:

    * Slavery

    * Genocide

    * Rape and Incest

    * Male domination

    * Female subjugation

    * Death penalty for minor infractions

    * Ancient myths about the origins of the world

    * Human sacrifice, such as that of its mythical Jesus

    For God himself to come down to Earth and announce to the world he exists.

    Anyone can say they believe in god. But the truth is they dont know for sure. You cant know, and people who say they do are lieing to themselves.

    Source(s): No harm intended.

    Said God would need to meet with me in a recorded session with an audience, prove his divinity, and... that would probably be all that's necessary.

    Source(s): Is proof/evidence really that much to ask for?

    How can it be the word of God if written by men? Immortal, sinning men?

    God would have to come down from heaven and make me a sandwich.

    Evidence. We have scientific minds, now lawyers.
