Round 1
Whoever created this world is either insane either psychopath, and probably a liar too, and since Christian God fits all of those descriptions, one can conclude he even probably exists. Problem solved.
Well in that case I won’t put in too much effort.
As far as I can tell, your argument goes as:
Premise 1: The world was probably created by something that is a phsycopath, insane, and a liar
Premise 2: Christian god is all of these things
Conclusion: Christian God is likely to exist
There are a few logical fallacies with this argument. First, the conclusion is not correctly derived from the premises. It is true that Christian god is more likely to exist than a deity that has the qualities described, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that Christian god is likely.
Second, you provide no reasoning to support premise 1, so that one can’t stand.
Third, Christian God as described in the Bible is perfectly good, and thus cannot lie or be insane.
To quickly uphold my end of the burden of proof. Christian god wrote the Bible according the the Bible itself. The Bible contains contradictions, the death of Judas just to name one. A perfect deity doesn’t contradict itself, thus Christian god cannot be real.
