Now tell me, what do you believe? there is more to believing than simply that he exists and "i can do whatever i want because god gave me free will even though im a slave to sin instead of righteousness", because satan knows he exist. But does that make him good? absolutely not.
clearly you do not understand what organized religion is for that was not what determined which books would go into the canon of the bible The term "canon" is used to describe the books that are divinely inspired and therefore belong in the Bible. The difficult aspect of determining the Biblical canon is that the Bible does not give us a list of the books that belong in the Bible. Determining the canon was a process, first by Jewish rabbis and scholars, and then later by early Christians. Ultimately, it was God who decided what books belonged in the Biblical canon. A book of Scripture belonged in the canon from the moment God inspired its writing. It was simply a matter of God convincing His human followers which books should be included in the Bible.

when adam and eve disobeyed god (sinned) they lost there purity and innocents and sins effects permeate everything, and the suffering we see all around us is a direct result of that sin.

And why weren't all of the books included?
