When you get right down to it, none of this has anything at all to do with having faith in "god". It's about having faith in human beings. Every book ever written, every story ever told, has come from human beings.
"But they were inspired by god" you say. And who told you that? A human being. And who told them that? Another human being. And so on, and so on, and so on.
Your faith is entirely in human beings. You have faith that they were not deceived. You have faith that they will not deceive you. You have faith in your own human mind to say with absolute certainty that you have been told the truth.
Therein lies the problem.
