frodo, serious question...if god wants us to believe in him, believe in jesus, etc, why doesn't he just come down here and be all like "see, here I am, worship my son or else".  pretty sure that would work on like 99% of us.

Jesus came down here and performed miracles, fed the 5,000, made the blind to see, lame to walk, raised the dead, turned water into wine, predicted His own death and resurrection and then died and rose again and yet many still don't believe in Him.  With that said, God doesn't work the way you are saying.  He requires a measure of faith on our part because He needs us to trust Him.

Joh 20:29 Jesus said to him, "Thomas, because you have seen Me, you have believed. Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed."

 

So blind faith rules - just like the blind faith shown to the Dravidian, Pol Pot etc

The first gods on planet were not god. They created the definition of god and falsely gave it to themselves. These false gods claimed the surfaces of the planet. The average person was a slave with no rights to property, even their own children. 

In different areas, an oral telling of a true god caused an awareness which undermined the false gods. 

How can you say that there is no god?

In the beginning Man created God; 
and in the image of Man 
created he him. 

And Man gave unto God a multitude of 
names,that he might be Lord of all 
the earth when it was suited to Man

The fact that an opinion has been widely held is no evidence whatever that it is not utterly absurd

It happened and it happens today. Religion itself is not without its transgressors.

 

However, in midst of suffering on earth, at risk of painful death, certain leaders set forth the greatest religion which basically overwhelmed the others.

Power, Easy living, it exists. 

There are real prophets, preachers, practitioners and there are fakes. 

You can't get me to believe it. There are only fakes.
