Truth outs itself, CEO802 ... how about an example for you? BTW - no one is asking you to believe or disbelieve what's being said.. this is for conversation's sake.
Even those who believe in God/gods, churches, argue the same exact thing.

God revealed himself, time and again before ANY written word.
I want God to change me.. not me make Him fit into my definition... I really don't have a singular one.
Anyway, I myself wasn't convinced until He did that for me (I got desperate enough to ask).. and the Bible had been in my life from a toddler!
The Bible is AWESOME... but you need that life Spirit) inside to grasp the treasure within it, imho.
Many books are just diverting and understanding isn't without a price..
You're starting to argue like Sprout usually does... which BTW.. whatever happened to him?
