What does ChatGPT Believe?

 Anything and everything you want, really.  Just like any tool, it can be used and bias is a huge factor.   What I've done below just as an experiment is approach it in a historical/logical way that forces ChatGPT to balance religious claims with Historical evidence.  I had to ask with just the write wording in just the right way to get it to compare the two religions without bias.   Below is what I got.  I think it's as honest an answer as you can come by. --ChatGPT Start-- If you’re forcing an “honest, average, non-religious evaluator” to choose based on historical evidence and being contradiction-free , here’s the most defensible guidance I can give: My advice Christianity is the safer pick on “historical evidence” and “owning contradictions honestly,” while Islam is the stronger pick on “a single scripture with early standardization,” but Islam’s popular claim that the Qur’an is identical “word-for-word everywhere since 632” is...

An Open Letter to a Muslim Who Is Beginning to Question

Dear Friend, If you are reading this, there is a good chance you are carrying a quiet burden—questions you may not feel safe voicing out loud. Questioning your faith, especially within Islam, can feel frightening, isolating, and deeply personal.  You may fear disappointing family, losing community, or betraying God.

An Open Letter to a Jehovah’s Witness Who Is Beginning to Question

Dear Friend If you are reading this, there is a good chance you are carrying a weight that few people around you can see. Questioning your faith—especially within the Jehovah’s Witness community—can feel terrifying, isolating, and deeply personal. You may feel fear of losing family, friends, identity, or certainty. You may feel guilt simply for asking questions. You may even feel disloyal or ungrateful for wondering whether what you have been taught is truly accurate. Let me say this plainly and gently: Questioning does not make you weak. It does not make you evil. And it does not make you unfaithful to God. In fact, Scripture itself (Jehovah's Witnesses' NWT Edition) commands believers to test what they are taught. “But examine everything carefully; hold fast to that which is good.”  — 1 Thessalonians 5:21 That command was not written with an asterisk. It does not say “examine everything carefully—except what your organization teaches.” If something is true, it will survive ex...
