Can an Ordinary "illiterate" man; Be a president and a leader of a Nation of well-cultured Novelists, Poets, and the like? Legislate, Judge, lead the armies, set military plans, and defeat the Most powerful Countries in the world?

And If that man exists, how do you think he'd be able to do all that?

DEUTERONOMY 22 (verse 21)
...she shall be brought to the door of her father's house and there the men of her town shall stone her to death. She has done a disgraceful thing in Israel by being promiscuous while still in her father's house. You must purge the evil from among you."

Quotes for you! Please add if you know of some.

"If people are good only because they fear punishment, and hope for a reward, then we are a sorry lot indeed." - Einstein

"You never see animals going through the absurd and often horrible fooleries of magic and religion. Only man behaves with such gratuitous folly. It is the price he has to pay for being intelligent but not, as yet, intelligent enough." -Huxley

"Religion is a byproduct of fear. For much of human history, it may have been a necessary evil, but why was it more evil than necessary? Isn't killing people in the name of God a pretty good definition of insanity?" -Clark

Say what you will about the sweet miracle of unquestioning faith, I consider a capacity for it terrifying and absolutely vile."
-Vonnegut

"I believe in God, only I spell it Nature." - Frank Lloyd Wright

Instead of avoiding a person who has gone to great lengths to desroy me socially with vicious gossip, lies and other condescending remarks, how should I react to them if we were to unexpectedly come face to face? I don't want to play their game or become physical. What should I do?

for believing in a concept there is no proof exists? IF I told you I could grant you three wishes why don't you believe me? How many more examples of this delusional thinking do you need to get a grasp on reality? Prove to me God exists. we can take my care and i'll pay for the gas. tell him we are coming and we will settle this right now.

Knowing christians you will probably grab the steering wheel and kill us both out of spite as you know there is proof

Exodus 4:24-25
