I am extremely opposed to believing in a God that is so imperfect‚ the world itself is an imperfect place‚ full of evil and sin‚ and I know I can live a fulfilling and happy life without the need of a Religious figure to sustain me. God may have some redeeming qualities but I refuse to believe in a "jealous" God. I understand that his jealousy arises
