I just find a lot of it ironic. More is expected of me as mere mortal than God. I gotta be held accountable for my actions but when things go astray, God had a reason. My issue is more with the Bible (The King James Version, the irony in that folks for centuries were referencing a remixed version) than God Itself. I believe in a higher being that understands everyone individually. That’s where it stops.
its possible to believe in both positions
you just have to abandon your own limitations youve set on God
most people do not meditate or pray enough (properly) to fully appreciate the good news.

You would be wrong. You can't be good enough, that's why GOD had to step in and do it for you. Just accept it and move on.
whats wrong with the next best version of yourself?
How would you know the characters of people that lived thousands of years ago? And exactly how do you think they would resonate with American culture with respect to what they wrote in OT manuscripts/NT Gospels?
Most people do not seek God because things are going good. They seek God often because things are not good. If you consider just this much, youll see why and how to deal with the common defenses and potentially see past them altogether.

How would you know the characters of people that lived thousands of years ago? We all don’t know. It was written by a mortal. And exactly how do you think they would resonate with American culture with respect to what they wrote in OT manuscripts/NT Gospels? I don’t know nor do I care. Why can’t God present Itself to us?

@CouldntBeMeTho god does present to people, everyday 
Already has.
So you hate accountability and don't want to believe in it either. Let's get right brother. God just asks that you feel bad and say sowet for what you've done and try again the next day. He knows you're going to fall short. It's the effort and the works of good that you do that do matter.
To the bolded how do you know w/ absolute certainty that’s what He/She/It said?
You’re reaching on me hating accountability. Is God (the biblical one) accountable for the chattel slavery of my ancestors?
Let me guess. God had a reason and works in mysterious ways?
This is a serious inquiry. Seems like God just let that slide. There are many atrocities going around the world but I want to keep it local. Since I hate accountability and all.

This post is almost alarmingly stupid, and you so strong with it too. Most of modern science is based on the work of enlightenment era christian monks and muslim scholars.

Man my cousin just told me she was gonna “pray” this weekend in order to ask God for guidance in sending his two weeks notice because she feels bad she’s leaving her new job that she’s only been at for 3 months because she feels and for leaving so soon

Not nearly as much, or to as many people, as those who sought to remove religion and replace it with their own ideology.
