Anyone believing in a young earth or man caused climate change ought to tour the federal facility Fossil Butte near Kemmerer Wyoming. Very interesting and hard to leave there believing the earth is just a few thousand years old.
I am a long ways from being an atheist and I believe Jesus was who HE claimed to be, but some of the "inerrancy of the bible" folks could certainly dissuade an atheist from swapping sides.
The bible is a combination of books, not a book. It has several authors and some are merely stating their opinion. Take Ecclesiastes for instance, it was written by Solomon after a long life and after he realized that all his striving was for naught. The histories of the Kings are woefully brief and don't give much info. I could go on but you get what I'm saying.
Patriotism (and religion) is the last refuge of a scoundrel. Jesus: "Take heed that no man deceive you." Hebrew Roots Judaizer
