I choose not to believe in any god, but it's not because of the sort of god
"he" may be. Especially as described by the OT prophets, whose words many
scholars (christian & other) have raised doubts about anyway.
BTW, what *is* your sort (of god)?

Yes, I certainly find it more readable than the KJ version!

I think that's always good advice; they should also keep in mind that they're
just the words of (human) prophets, interpreted centuries later.
