Considering other views, without allowing them to influence your thinking in some way, is also, by definition, 'closed-minded'.
I am not annoyed that you're not an atheist.
Alright then, by your defination I am close minded.

You say you want to talk about stuff or share your viewpoint, and then immediately say that nothing could possibly change your mind, even when you're shown that your statements are built upon false premises or simply erroneous facts. Why would we want to have a conversation with someone who says they already know 100%, with no possiblity of questioning, and that nothing would make them reconsider their position?I have never once said I know everything and I feel without Christ life would be pointless.

I know you are not annoyed, thanks. Just some people seem to be.
I didn't meant that you know everything. I said that you're 100% certain that you know you've got the right ideas about Christ. You've made it clear that nothing will even make you question or reconsider your position, why would we want to discuss it with you?
