On Psalm 109 and Faith

Also on the "if proven" side, if proof were indisbutable, I'd believe. But I'd like to think that doesn't mean I would blindly follow. As mentioned above, the god described in the Bible (throughout, not just the Old Testament) is one I find reprehensible. This is true for the holy texts of most other religions as well.

To me, the demands for worship made by gods are no more reasonable than a domineering mother saying "I brought you into this world and therefore I get to pick your clothes and friends and job when your 40."
