Why debate God's existence since faith is required

A reason for belief is the thing that convinces you. You say that people have different reasons for accepting things and that they call different things "evidence". The way that the scientific community (the community that is responsible for all we know today) determines something as factual is can it be observed. If people claim to have observed it, did they observe it with any of the human senses we know people have? If they observed it by just "feeling his love", that evidence falls flat on it's face. If they accept the holy text as evidence, again, it falls flat. "Why do you believe in god?" "The bible is says that god exists." "Why is the bible a source of evidence?" "It came from god". I'm not saying that that is your reasoning, but a lot of people get in to that cycle. It's a cycle that makes no sense. The only acceptable evidence is evidence that can be observed regularly using any of the human senses. Many claim miracles as evidence, which they are not. Miracles is a concept way too broad. Here's why: a miracle is an unlikely, positive event that occurs because of God. But are there unlikely positive events that don't occur because of God? If so, how can we differentiate the two? And if all positive unlikely events are miracles, what if it's positive for one group and negative for another? Is that a miracle? Because in that situation, God worked against his own, something the bible says he'd never do, for he loves all his children. Atheists only require one thing to be an atheist: disbelief in a god. What one atheist does can be different than another. Two people can be absolutely nothing alike what so ever. One can be completely skeptical about everything while another accepts a lot of super natural claims and believes everything that is said to him. But if he does not believe in god just like the skeptic, than they both fall in to the same category. However, an atheist saying "there is no god" is actually similar to "I do not accept your claim for a god". When someone tells their child that Santa Claus does not really exist are they asserting something? Or do they really mean that Santa is a fake, made up character that we have never been able to observe? Same goes for many atheists and gods. Many believe God is a fake made up character that has no evidence to back up it's existence. I am someone who falls in to that category. The Christian God is one in a few million gods, the bible is one in many holy texts, Jesus is one of millions of prophets, the bible to me is a fake. I do know from my historical studies that Christianity is nothing more than a stolen story, for the stories of Jesus and god have occurred in extremely similar ways long before the bible ever came about. In fact, here is a chart that shows a comparison of Christianity and a religion from Egypt Egyptian - (Began 4,000 BCE) 1. The Mysteries 2. The Sem, or mythical representations 3. The Ritual as the book.of resurrection 4.The sayings of Iu or Iu-em-hetep 5. Huhi the father in heaven as the eternal, a title of Atum-Ra 6. Ra, the holy spirit 7. Ra the father of Iu the Su, or son of God, with the hawk or dove as the bird of the holy spirit 8. Iu or Horus, the manifesting son of God 9. The trinity of Atum (or Osiris) the father, Horus (or Iu) the son, and Ra the holy spirit 10. Iu-Su or Iusa, the coming son of Iusaas, who was great with Iusa or Iusu 11.The ever-coming Messu or Child as Egyptian 12. Horus (or Heru), the Lord by name, as a child 13. Isis, the virgin mother of Iu, her Su or son 14. The .rst Horus as Child of the Virgin, the second as son of Ra, the father 15. The first Horus as the founder, the second as fulfiller for the father 16. The two mothers of Child-Horus, Isis and Nephthys, who were two sisters 17. Meri or Nut, the mother-heaven The outcast great mother with her seven sons 18. Isis taken by Horus in adultery with Sut 19. Apt, the crib or manger, by name as the birthplace and mother in one 20. Seb, the earth-father, as consort to the virgin Isis 21. Seb, the foster-father to Child-Horus 22. Seb, Isis and Horus, the Kamite holy trinity Christian - (Began 200 BCE) 1. The miracles. 2. The parables. 3. The Book of Revelation. 4. The sayings of Jesus. 5. Ihuh, the father in heaven as the eternal. 6. God the Holy Ghost. 7. God, the Father of Jesus, with the dove as the bird of the Holy Spirit. 8. Jesus the manifesting Son of God. 9. The Trinity of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. 10. Jesus. 11. The Hebrew Messianic Child. 12. Child-Jesus as the Lord by name (Gospels of the Infancy). 13. Mary the virgin mother of Jesus. 14. Jesus as the Virgin's child, the Christ as son of the father. 15. Jesus as the founder, and the Christ as fulfiller for the father. 16. The two mothers of Child-Jesus, who , were sisters. 17. Mary, as Regina Cceli. 18. Mary Magdalene, with her seven devils. 19. The woman taken in adultery. 20. The manger as cradle of the Child Christ. 21. Joseph, the father on earth, as putative husband to the Virgin Mary. 22. Joseph, as foster-father to the Child Jesus. 23. Joseph, Mary and Jesus, a Christian holy trinity. (http://kemetway.com...) I find Christianity and all religions to be full of holes. And I find too many similarities among religions to find one more acceptable than another. I also find them all hard to believe due to a lack of evidence.
