Moravian comments on Jun 30, 2019:

Do you mean the Judeo/Christian god ?. I can see a good argument for not believing in it. Just read the first books of the old testament. An obscure middle eastern tribe are chosen by the creator of the universe to be his chosen people and he then helps them to defeat their enemies and take over lands he promised to them. Actually a polytheistic tribe adopt monotheism whilst in exile in Babylon, possibly taken from Zoroaster and they then use this adopted god to justify their warlike acquisitive behaviour

IF you believe that an all powerful being that created the universe chose an obscure middle eastern tribe to be his chosen people and helped them to defeat their enemies and populate lands promised to them then you are delusional.

Many American cultural ideas comes across the Atlantic and our supermarket shelves are laden with dozens of nutritionally poor sugar laden foods that can only be sold by having a massive advertising budget.

If you watch the England team playing today in the world cup they will sing "God save the Queen" which is the UK anthem, whilst the Scottish team will sing "Flower of Scotland" written by a folk singer a few years ago. There has been a move to have a separate English national anthem and a popular favourite is " Jerusalem" Honestly.
