It goes like this:

Because he is the same person who personally killed all the firstborn of people who did not even do wrong, and has ordered all kinds of rape and pillage, while he could have avoided that. Coming to the point, even the death of Jesus could have been avoided. He just seems like a bloodthirsty maniac to me.
Way to miss the point. The point is that just because you have faith in something doesn't mean it's true. And I could take your faith in god's existence and say that it is your soul calling out to the FSM.
Talking about seeing and accepting that, why didn't he "see and accept" the "callings of the soul" of all the people murdered in the OT who didn't worship him?

You have a very distorted view on the OT. He never murdered anyone who didnt first oppress and attack his people. Im sorry, but the Jews in the old testament went through alot of crap. From Exodus, to Maccabees :/
and what the incorruptible saints DO prove is that there's SOMETHING to Christianity. Unless, of course, you're claiming that these people were just fungus-resistant.
