God is so "great" that such a question can't apply. Asking such a question is expressing ignorance more than simply saying something like, "God is way beyond my understanding."

So your god is so awesome and way beyond your understanding, yet you continue to claim to know quite a bit about what he wants?

Do you not see the fallacy in that?

You need to first recognize that God exists. Then, maybe you can start to think about finding the info and understanding about Himself that He provides for people.

Since you don't even want to accept that God exists, how can you even fathom the idea that He speaks to people through the Bible? That's why you mistakenly think that there is fallacy in what I understand about God.

So, this is what you're suggesting:

1) First, just assume God exists without any reason whatsoever.

2) Take some arbitrary evidence and try to explain it in terms of God, which you have simply assumed to exist without any good reason.

3) When the explanation seems plausible enough, call this evidence proof for God.

Finally, your question at the end is ludicrous:

Answer: Wise people need a reason to believe in something. Why? Because there are an infinite number of things to believe in for which there is no evidence. There is no good reason to "fathom" that God speaks to people through the Bible if they don't have a good reason to believe in God.

Your continued attempts to justify your belief in God are ass-backwards. You don't do *any*thing to prove God exists. All you do is assume God exists, and then you try to explain all things in terms of your assumption. The icing on the dunce-cake is that you believe these arbitrary correlations are actually evidence or proof for God. They're not. Not even close.
