@fernie2 Agreed! Just in the case of the bible there's very little about the "God" himself.
And that is specifically to control people.
What better means to insure control if there's very little about the deity to conflict with the belief in such. Just an all knowing, all caring, perfect deity that has no purpose in existing.
The believe justifies itself. The ultimate in sophistry. You believe because he exists. And that he is unknowable and his reasons are beyond us fits as well.
