The Agnostic will try to separate faith from their source (the Bible/Torah) especially the first verse. “In the beginning of G-D’s creating the heaven and the earth… If they can ignore this section and say that instead the pieces were here and that G-D just assembled then then they could conclude that everything can exist without the will off G-D, Therefore they would conclude that we aren’t depending on G-D.
That is why the 1st words of the Bible/Torah are the 1st words because they are essential to our faith in one G-D. A G-D who loves each one of his creations and plays an important role in our lives everyday. It becomes easier to see that when one reads the holy book and open their heart, minds and soul to the beauty within the book.
