Psalm 115: These believers seem very smug that they are able to have faith in a God they can't see, unlike the heathens who have to make idols of silver and gold to worship. The idols are apparently merely the work of men's hands, why the constant belittling of what humans make and invent?
Psalm 116: Another typical psalm, someone who believes God helped them when they were in trouble and will now praise him whenever they can
Psalm 117: Ok, that's a short one!
Psalm 118: "It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man." Wow, seriously? As a humanist I find that quite offensive, the bible isn't just misogynistic, it's also very misanthropic
