The actual god can't be the one of the Bible God would have to be eternal that I did prove( unless you can find a flaw with my logic) and thus not subject to sequential, transient emotions which god is in the Bible( " I thy lord thy God am a jealous God" etc). God could interfere for his own unfathomable reasons but I would tend to doubt that he would if we can set up the universe so that it runs itself the way he wants.

But even these supporting arguments can be undeniably asserted. You're NOT God, how do you know that he isn't Jealous? Or that He exists? (to refer to some of the other religious worldviews we've covered so far)... All of these assertions require some level of faith, logic be damned.

Maybe its possible for an eternal powerful being to be jealous but its not bloody likely. Thinking this is not the same as blind faith. As I said there is a possibility for there to be no "God" but that would mean the Universe itself was eternal and uncaused its an either/or proposition and the idea that time goes back forever is inconcieveable to me so I'm a Deist.
