You are wrong again. My logic is dependant on evidence. If god,if he exists,ever came to earth and proved himself i would believe. Until then i use all the available history and evidence i have to come to the conclusion that the bible was written by primitive goat herders who liked to kill in...

I will leave it up to others to argue with you the finer points of calvinism. I will only say that this is not what any of the mainline denominations believe. All Gods are imaginary and all religions are superstition so i do not want to waste time arguing which form of religious superstition...

This is confusing. I have been told all my life by preachers of many different churches that i simply must believe and repent and i am "in". Now you are telling everybody that no matter what you do if God has not already chosen you you can not believe. This will come as a surprise to people who...

Ok i think i understand now. If i give up logic and reason i will more clearly see God? Is that how you did it? If God does not want me to think why did he give me a thinker? I believe i have found the truth through logic and reason.

I present evidence, logic, and research from some of the best secular researchers in the business and you counter with some emotional nonsense that you have met Jesus. Do you really think you can sway educated people who are only interested in hard evidence with emotional testimony?

Proof #47 - Contemplate creation Many Christians look at our universe, and especially life on planet Earth, and come to the conclusion that what we see is "irreducible complexity." In the Christian view, the complexity of our universe and life on earth requires an intelligent creator to bring...

Does it bother you that there are two different stories about how Judas died? Matthew 27:3-5 When Judas, his betrayer, saw that he was condemned, he repented and brought back the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and the elders, saying, "I have sinned in betraying innocent...

Jem i am glad that you take the time to read my thread. I think that as you think about these questions you may start to hunger for more answers. That is the first step. Let me pose some other questions for you to think about: Does it ever bother you about why a book, (which is supposed...

Proof #46 - Ponder Pascal's Wager You will frequently hear believers make the following rationalization: Suppose you are right. Suppose there is no God. Then when I die as a believer, I have lost nothing. I just die, as a man that devoted his life to love and morals. But if you, as a...

Proof #45 - Consider Noah's Ark There are so many absurdities in the story of Noah's ark. The fact that such an absurd story is in the Bible is enough to prove that the Bible is the mythological work of primitive men rather than the product of an all-knowing being. And once we've proven that...

But he said he would. Did god lie? Matthew 7:7 Jesus says: Ask, and it will be given you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. For every one who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened. Or what man of you, if his son asks him...

I am brings up an interesting thought. He claims to be jesus and yet i bet that no one on this site believes him. In the bible we find that almost half of the new testament was written by a man whose only claim to fame is his claim that he had a vision on a deserted road that jesus spoke to him...

Proof #44 - Think about a Christian housewife Take one moment to think about a typical Christian and her "answered prayers." For example, there is a Christian housewife in Pasadena who firmly believes that God answered her prayer this morning to remove the mustard stain from her favorite...

Well what do you know. Jesus comes to earth and leaves a message and the first one who doubts it is the loudest christian on this board. Why are you demanding proof now? When i pointed out that the things jesus was supposed to have done in the bible are unproven you jump all over me. This...
