Pretty stupid to think the God spoken of in the bible is a mysterious guiding force. God in the bible sounds pretty ignorant. And if you've experienced a miracle why would you attribute it to a name associated with the bible like God? That's a question for you, so called atheist!!
Who said I experienced a miracle? Who said I was an atheist? I cant really answer that considering I dont precisely know what a miracle is and thus dont know whether I have experienced one in any way, shape or form.

As for the so-called atheist bit. I dont refute the idea of a creator of our universe at all, I just dont consider it. Why? Its an unfalsifiable idea where the very notion of such a concept is determined completely by the individual maintaining the belief.

As for the other stuff, Im no expert on the bible and dont intend nor want to be. I explicitly said that Ill leave such postulations to the theists. I was wrong to even try to comprehend the god figure. Its completely impossible. I was merely trying to use the common reasoning behind the figure of god to show the consequences of such thinking. I assumed that god had limits and thus, exists in a world of his own. Such statements are completely wrong, you can quite easily refute this by saying 'he doesnt have limits'. And Id be in no position to contend with you because as I said before. The notion of god is determined by the individual.
