The god of the bible was taken from the Babylonian pantheon of gods and adapted and evolved to suit the religious and cultural needs of the tribe of Israel.....beginning as a tribal god of war and evolved into the 'one true God.'

To believe that, one would have to believe that God was invented by Man. Oooops.
