1 + 1 = 2.
If you accept rationality and logic, then you must conclude that a theistic god does not exist.
1. The problem of evil
2. Poor design. - So many inhabitable planets
3. God being omniscient? Didn't he foresee Eve eating of the fruit?
4. Omnipotence self-contradictions. Create coffee so hot he cannot drink it?
5. Occam's Razor - The supernatural is not necessary to explain the universe
6. Ultimate Boeing 747 Gambit/infinite regress. - Who designed the designer?
7. Free will contradiction with God's omniscience.
8. Lack of evidence/ ineffectiveness of prayer/ lack of miracles.
9. Historical induction - most "gods" throughout history have eventually come to be dismissed
10. No reason to suggest God would have any properties usually ascribed - ie. goodness
11. The bible is not necessary in forming morals
12. Self contradictions within the bible
13 Gross underestimate of the earth's age in the bible.
14. Contradictions with other religions
15. Russell's teapot analogy - burden of proof on the believer
So you can believe if you want, just know that it is irrational to do so.
