Lostone, your argument is awfully inconsistent.
You say that Scattered has to read the Bible before he can make a fair judgment on the existence or otherwise of God and on what kind of existence that is, if it is. Presumably this is to have a more objective, rounded view of things, understanding the Christian belief before you reject it.
But then it follows from this that you should have to read all the major scriptures - the Qu'ran, the Torah and what have you - because there's no prior reasons to believe the Bible is more valid than them. Your attempt to seemingly help his objective flounders on the fact that it makes a presumption about the validity of the Christian Faith above all others.
Incidentally,

Incidentally,
Even the most diehard Christians have abandoned the former dogma that the world's only 6,000 years old.
