We accept God's word without question because we are His humble servants.
Then like I said earlier, you have no method to determine what you worship is a good being. That should terrify you if you are a good person and immediately make you second guess everything.
And yet you continue to demonstrate clear evidence to the contrary. If you're not plagued by demons then show me your embrace of God.
This is a false dichotomy.
You put understanding before faith. That's backwards. I assure you, this is something you are wrong about.
True, but we have a thousand times more evidence to confirm that God exists.
If you think you have evidence that I haven't seen before I am all ears.
If (A) I was asking you to lie to yourself, and (B) lying to yourself will never make you happy, then (C) actively religious people cannot be happier than irreligious people.
This argument is based on the false premise that religious people would see their religion as a lie. I'm an atheist, so if I were to embrace christianity I would see it as a lie.
Your perspective is that you're too smart to believe in God
Nope. I have no evidence for it, so I do not believe it. It has nothing to do with my intelligence.
You believe that intelligent people choose unhappiness despite the obvious fact that it would be rather unwise to intentionally choose unhappiness
Once again, belief is not a choice.
And correlation does not imply causation, therefore you cannot rationally say that being religious makes you more happy.
The only possible explanation for your insistent rejection of God is your unknowing loyalty to Satan
No, the actual explanation is my responses above. And this is also a fallacy:
