   The God myths and fables.   
      
   There are thousands of dramatically different God beliefs but no God   
   announces or demonstrates that it is the 'real God' and the many others are   
   fakes.   
      
      
      
   If there was a REAL God, it would not tolerate the gross deception of it's   
   creations by the thousands of false Gods.  Any REAL God would communicate to   
   his creations that it is the REAL God and all the others are fakes. It would   
   use its supernatural powers to   
      
   destroy all the false Gods that deceive and mislead its followers.   
      
   No God ever speaks to, communicates with or appears to any of the 6.8   
   BILLION 'sane' members of society.   
      
      
      
   Here are a few of the more prominent documents on various religious/God   
   beliefs;   
      
      
      
   Baha'i Sacrid writtings   
      
   Life of Buddha - Dhammapada - Pali cannon   
      
   The Bible - Christian religious documents - 18 English versions alone.   
      
    NO originals of the old or new testaments exist. We don't know what the   
   originals said.   
      
   The Book of Mormon - Church of Latter Day Saints - written by a church   
   leader.   
      
   The Analects - Confuscianism   
      
   The Eddas and Sagas - Icelandic beliefs   
      
   Wicca - Neo paganism of Greece and Rome   
      
   Bhagavgita and Rig Veda - Hinduism   
      
   Qur'an - Islam   
      
   Adi Granth and Dasam Granth - canonical scripture of the Sikhs   
      
   Tanakh - Jewism   
      
   Tao-Te-Ching - Taoism   
      
   Nag Hammadi - Gnostics   
      
   Zhuan Falun - Falun Gong   
      
      
      
   Of all these different Gods and belief systems which is the true one, if   
   any, and which are fakes? None of these documents are any objective   
   evidence. They are all documents written, hand copied, modified and further   
   copied, over the centuries, by errant men with their own personal and   
   selfish motivations.   
      
   There is no objective verifiable evidence that any dead relative or friend   
   has ever directly communicated with the living. That is because they no   
   longer   
      
   EXIST even as a spirit!   
      
   None of the hundreds of thousands of religious leaders has ever been able to   
   demonstrate that his God actually exists. Nor have any of them ever been   
   able to confirm that their Heaven, Hell, God, Devil or Angels actually   
   exist. Nor have any of them ever 'proven' they have communicated with their   
   claimed God.   
      
   Would any real loving and caring intelligent God, create Plagues, Tsunamis,   
   Tornadoes, Volcanic Eruptions, Floods, Wars, Earth Quakes, Cancers and   
   hundreds of debilitating diseases and serious body malfunctions? There are   
   12,000 known diseases that affect and punish mankind indiscriminately. Why   
   does it permit millions of both young and old to starve to death or die of   
   miserable diseases? Why punish millions of INNOCENT CHILDREN in this   
   horrible way?   
      
   Why would any all powerful and caring god permit totally "innocent children"   
   to die at birth? Or worse, be born lacking eyesight, a fully developed   
   brain, deaf and dumb, missing limbs etc.? Why are some born idiots and   
   others with super intelligence? Why are some born into wealth and others   
   pauper poor? Why would it permit over 2,000,000 innocent children to die of   
   starvation every year? Why are his human creations designed to deteriorate   
   into a miserable and devastating old age regardless of their religious   
   beliefs?   
      
   People feel compelled to believe in Gods, Heavens, Hells, Angels and after   
   life because they cannot mentally accept the finality of death and the loss   
   of their   
   existence.   
      
   Their is no objective verifiable evidence that any Gods are more real than   
   Santa Claus or the Tooth Fairy, All Gods are based on nothing more than   
   hopes,   
      
   fears, myths and fables.
