How I learned that God doesn't exist.

I saw that human life can just be squashed.

It disgusts me. And it continues to happen every day.

Something that my human brain sees as precious and valuable is so easily disposable.

There is no inherent importance in what we percieve as irreplaceable. Our brain sees patterns in the sea of randomness. This includes life and consciousness.

How can there be a God if all this is true?

@ArkBallet A "flawed culture?" Isn't that ethnocentrism?

@FrogManSometimesLooksBothWays From a biblical perspective, the idea is that all human cultures are affected by sin, not just ancient ones. So calling that culture flawed isn’t elevating ours above it, it’s saying no culture fully reflects the ideal. The point is that the Bible is interacting with real people in a specific time and place, not presenting any human society as perfect or final.
