Sometimes I think people get the cart before the horse in a sense. (BTW and this is not meant to be offensive to you, the OP, in any way, at 16 years old you are a little young to be just discounting the ideas of faith okay?) Here something that comes to my mind. I am a father. I have a 13 year old son. Now the kid thinks he knows it ALL...but obviously he DOES NOT! I have to tell him sometimes things to do and things not to do and sometimes I have to get loud or ugly or etc....but it is because I love him and don't want him to be unsafe or in danger,etc. God is like that with us too. So He decided to use a Book that is very very OLD and that is controversial to say the least and He also uses imperfect humans to tell His message and guide His people! I can relate the way God works to the way a parent works with small children. Just my two! Wait until you are about 40 something before you write all this off as "superstition" etc.

Freud wrote a lot about god as the father-figure.

While Freud has been pretty much written off by the psyches of today....he had something there! Most people's concept of God are influenced by their experiences with their fathers.
