    Atheist. There is a lot of scientific knowledge about the beginning of the universe that reading religious books feel like reading fairy tales. For example, we now know that the world is not 6000 years old when you consider the bible but billions of years old, some verses in the bible claim the earth is flat such as these:

    1 Chronicles 16:30: “He has fixed the earth firm, immovable.”
    Psalm 93:1: “Thou hast fixed the earth immovable and firm ...”Psalm 96:10: “He has fixed the earth firm, immovable ...”Psalm 104:5: “Thou didst fix the earth on its foundation so that it never can be shaken.”Isaiah 45:18: “...who made the earth and fashioned it, and himself fixed it fast...”

    If there is a "God" would he not know the shape of the planet he created? In Genesis, there is a flood of Noah which "wiped out the entire world", if this happened it would have left so much genetic evidence in form of animal and plant fossils on top of the highest mountains, to date nothing of this sort has ever been found. In Exodus, the Bible says Pharaoh and his army drowned while chasing Moses and the people of Israel, to date nothing has ever been found that suggests such an event occurred, no wheel, chariots, bones, weapons, nothing.

    A lot is stacked up against the bible that I find it Impossible to believe its content.
