Ok so I want to say a couple facts. 1. The ark wasn't made out of a house, it took Noah a while to build it because it was so big. 2. Religions can cause wars yes. But that doesn't mean that it was God telling them too. People misinterpret the Bible and do crazy things. Nowhere does it say to go start wars. 3. God did kill the firstborn in every Egyptian family. But you left out a huge part, Pharoah and Egypt had enslaved the Israelites, and after Moses telling Pharoah to let them go and several plagues, he wouldn't let them go. So eventually God had to do that to get the Israelites out of Egypt. 4. God caused the flood which wiped out everything except those on the Ark. But man had no law no morals, they were terrible they killed everywhere with no laws preventing it. So instead of hoping they would change (God knew they wouldn't) so he went to the only faithful family in the world (Noah's) had him build an ark to save humans and animals, and destroyed the wicked human race. 5. Some Christians are total jerks we aren't all perfect people. So some yell at people to repent or die, and I am extremely sorry that happened to you Lysurus. But I have a friend who went to a school one day and was peacefully reading his Bible in the library one day when 4 Atheists came by and knocked it out of his hands and punched him in the gut. Because he was Christian. I am not saying all Atheists are jerks (My best friend happens to be one). 6. I actually believe in evolution and I am Christian and I can explain the Austrolopithicus (can't spell it I think XD). So 7 days of creation may not be 7 24 hour days but thousands if not millions of years each. Where dinosaurs maybe existed and died out in one of those days and maybe humans slowly evolved from apes until Adam.

So also some people may think I am a Diehard Christian from birth. Wrong. I believed in God for about 7 years then I got LCH (too many white blood cells who ate my red blood cells) then it was just a serious disease in which only 3 children survived it at the Sharp hospital there (I am lucky to be the third). Look now and it would be classified as a serious Cancer. I survived but have minor hearing loss in my right ear. But instead of binding me to my faith it did the opposite. 1 year of repeated blood tests and doctor appointments got me out of weekly church for a year. I never went back until I was 12. For all that time I was Atheist I had forgotten about God. I believed in all that stuff. But then my parents (Chistians) moved me to a Christian school. For the first year I just went along with it normally I was Christian but I didn't really follow God as much as I knew one was there. But then my life was changed by several things. I love history so I did a lot of history research on my own time. I also had a Bible class at school. I started putting things together and pieced together history and Bible. I read several books about why Religion and Science go together. And I fitted the Bible in to history. For me I looked at the world and I said there is no way this beautiful world was made by a chemical reaction or chance. This world is too complex for it to be a chance. There is such a small chance that we would end up with a planet with just the right atmosphere and distance from the sun and that we would end up on it. It is more likely a tornado would go through a junkyard and a assemble a fully functional plane ready to take off. And the whole Big Bang thing could of been creation, it could of been caused by God. I have looked at the facts and I am certain that there is a God.
