A question about God

[nomadd]

God did know where you key was. He just wasn't telling you.

Which proves I made the right choice with devote Atheism, then.

Not really. It does not logically follow from "God knowing where the keys were and didn't let on" that "No God exists". Similarly God as presented by the various religions not being logically consistent does not mean no God exists. Further, God as presented by various religions being immoral, or not worthy of praise/worship/putting faith in, also does not mean no God exists. He might exists and not meet your approval. or might exist and not be as presented by any of the religions.

Choosing to be an atheist of the Richard Dawkins mould is rather more logical, in that he thinks that science has shown there is no requirement for any kind of God to explain natural phenomena, therefore it is highly improbable that any kind of God exists, and so the rational approach is to assume that there doesn't. Not everyone agrees with that the logical chain is valid, but at least he's trying for a rational basis of unbelief - certainly one better than "I don't like the Catholic Church so I'm going to be an atheist".
