I also think that the Bible is a tool that is used by an engaged God to speak again through human imagination.
So this god character decides the best way to communicate to his creation is 2000 years ago through the imagination of desert dwelling sheep herders in a language that, very soon after he "engages" them, dies out? So he cares enough to "engage" these sheep herders 2000 years ago to kill himself for himself, but leaves it up to their imagination to determine what he means as opposed to just telling them? Nevermind the fact that, so engaged is he, that he tells them which fabrics to wear and how to sacrifice goats, but utterly fails to say "look, slavery in ANY form is bad, mmkay? Oh, and that rape? Yea, just because he pays you off and marries his victim...yea, still not OK. Rape is bad, guys". Is he so incompetent that he can't use language clear enough so as to require apologetics or translation?
You worship this thing....why?
