Ahura Mazda is the only believable deity.

So, I must rebut! a god that lets you do whatever you want, and still welcomes you with open armsYou are confusing the word "do" with the word "think". Ahura Mazda does punish those who do evil, just not those who do not believe in him. Juxtapose this with the Christian God you are "primarily defending", who forgives evil deeds but punishes those who do not believe (the First Commandment[1])The God of the Bible is not evil or lustfulDoes this not contradict your other comment "God of the Bible has these traits because he created us in His own image." If we are in his image, than should we not possess these negative traits. I guess one could argue that those traits came from the Tree of Knowledge, but then again, the Abrahamic God did put that Tree in the middle of Eden and then said "don't eat from it!" Obviously, not a "God of Wisdom", in fact, not even a God with much foresight.I actually have strong scriptural evidence that indicates the wicked will not have eternal conscious tormentActually, I have heard this before, in a sense. It is that Hell is being without God and Heaven is being in the presence of God. So,it seems to me that one side gets to do whatever while those in Heaven get to spend eternity praising God, delivering him attention and applause for all eternity. A human trait indeed! The Abrahamic God must have his pride satiated, like the most vain of humans. To the contrary, Ahura Mazda does not do this. He does not demand attention and applause. Instead, he demands humans to be good to other humans. Again, one who rejects Ahura Mazda but practices good will be embraced by the God of the Persians. But this same man, if he also rejects the Abrahamic God, will be sent away simply for the crime of using his reason.Although it is commanded that Christians be in fellowship with other believers.Now I was brought up with mandatory church on Sundays, however I concede that point if you say that it isn't. But, the demand for fellowship with other believers, what about non-believers?CONCLUSIONIn conclusion, I believe that I have demonstrated how the Abrahamic God (and all others except Ahura Mazda) are the creations of human beings. But for further examination, let us see how believers of the two Gods (Jehova and Ahura Mazda) treated non-believers in their time of power.Persia once controlled most of Asia Minor, parts of Eastern Europe, the Crimea, Egypt, and Northwestern India[2]. It was founded by Cyrus the Great and due to its Zoroastrianism (the worship of Ahura Mazda), adopted a policy of religious tolerance[3]. It was these people who allowed the ancient Israelites to return to Jerusalem and rebuild their temple[4]. Let us examine how the Jews behaved with their Abrahamic God. Genesis 34:15-29 discussed how they convinced a rival people to undergo circumcision in exchange for intermarrying. When the men were recovering from the mutilation, the Jews attacked them and killed them all, taking the women as part of the booty.[5] Not to appear anti-Semetic, let us now examine Christianity's doings, and their efforts to spread the Gospel. We have the forced conversions of indigineous Europeans. Charlamagne ordering the execution of 4,500 Saxon men for not bowing down to Jeus[6]. We have the Crusades, which were politically brilliant but certainly violate the whole "Turn the Other Cheek" morality of Jesus. Of course, for plundering and fighting across Europe, they were granted entry into Heaven![7] Again, the forced conversion of indigineous peoples in a newly discovered land called the Americas[8]. So now we see that, like the ancient Pagan gods who demanded to be imposed upon conquered peoples, the God of the Bible is exactly the same. It appears as though only Ahura Mazda does not wish to be forced into the hearts of people.
