All organized religions have one thing in common that destroys them

Your argument is very compelling. I can argue for the Bible because I am Catholic. Each of the 72 books of the Bible have been inspired by God. The Catholic church did not just randomly choose 72 manuscripts, they in fact research thousands of manuscripts and said these 72 books were inspired by God. Lets take the four Gospels, Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. These are not the only four manuscripts that write about Jesus' life. Most of these manuscripts are eyewitness accounts of Jesus' miracles and his life. Now the four writers of the Gospels did not just sit down one day and began writing about Jesus with God in the background telling them what to write. Each of the four writers did there research own research, into to Jesus' life and, based off of that research wrote the Gospels. Their sources include the Apostles, one of the Gospel writers was actually a good friend of St. Peter. Furthermore, when the Catholic Church formed. The Church then took all these manuscripts, did there own research and put together the 72 books of the Bible, and this research has not stop, it continues today. Now where does God come into this equation? Each of the writers were inspired by God in their writing and in their research and so was the Popes and the Church when they did there own research into the 72 books of the Bible. Now the Old Testament is a little more complicated because of the fact it is larger than the New Testament, have a lot more genres of writings, and is much older than the New Testament. Anyway, all the Prophets, that existed, were all inspired by God. Also the writers of the Old Testament were all inspired by God to write about the Prophets or to write a story to teach a lesson. Even though some parts of the Old Testament are not true, for example, Jonah did not exist, all the books were written to teach a lesson and this lesson can be learned through reading the Bible contextually. Now my opponent asked what makes more sense: 1. You send a prophet, one at a time to convey this message. 2. You reveal to each man, woman and child who ever lived supernaturally in an unmistakeable way so that the message would be completely impossible to misinterpret. No one could possibly claim ignorance or unbelief because it would be plainer than 2 + 2 =4. It would be more obvious than fire being hot or ice being cold. There would not be different religions preaching different messages. There would be no learning process at all. Everyone would know everything there was to know about God and the only responsibility left would be to obey it. Belief would not even be an issue. God could regularly write his message across the sky in every language just to remind everyone that the message was actually coming from him. The problem with the second senario is that it does not allow human beings to have free will. In conclusion, the Bible was written by humans for humans, not by God, but all the writers of the 72 books were inspired by God. The Prophets were also inspired by God and there is evidence to support this. So no GTMTTY actually happens in the Bible. What happens instead is humans researching and being inspired by God to write the Books of the Bible. Thank You.
