the bible use to be called gods word but now most of the things in it are deemed a crock of crap we are told it is merely a guide to what god wants.

how convinient

you want to have an imaginary friend then fine but dont go around telling people he exists then complain when you get laughed at
You do not have to be gullible or uneducated to have a belief..or faith in what you might sneeringly call 'an imaginary friend'.
I know lots of very well educated people who have their own quiet belief.
Faith is called 'faith' because it is an unquestioning belief in something that you cannot prove, something you cannot see, something you cannot touch.
