154. There are so many concepts of god, it's impossible to disprove them all
But we can look at those based on the bible, which has influenced the way almost everyone who believes in god thinks about the subject. The very idea that there is only one God, for instance. We can study the bible and analyze it's claims, and it turns out there are a bunch of lies in the bible. Many things claimed and attributed to god simply didn't happen, like the world and all life within being created in a few days. We can dismiss most of the bible as being factually untrue, so why can't we dismiss it's concept of God?

I've never known an agnostic who viewed other gods dreamed up by other cultures as anything other than fantasy, so why does the god of the bible get so much leeway?
