(awesome!)
A Christian told me: if you were saved you cant lose your salvation. you're sealed with the Holy Ghost
I replied: Can I refuse? Because I find the entire concept of vicarious blood sacrifice atonement to be morally abhorrent, the concept of holding flawed creatures permanently accountable for social misbehaviors and thought crimes to be morally abhorrent, and the concept of calling something "free" when it comes with the strings of subjugation and obedience perhaps the most morally abhorrent of all... and that's without even going into the history of justifying genocide, slavery, rape, misogyny, religious intolerance, and suppression of free speech which has been attributed by your own scriptures to your deity. I want a refund. I would burn happily rather than serve the monster you profess to love.

So then, answer this Atheists;
If God doesn't exist
THEN WHO IS JESUS'S FATHER?
Check-Mate.
There's no more denying it. OMG ITS EDWARD CURRENT HIMSELF!!!!! I REPENT I REPEENNNTTTT!!!!!!!
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

Anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.' -Isaac Asimov-

Argued this one A LOT in high school (which was inhabited by religious nuts):
No woman who becomes pregnant by someone she oughtn't be pregnant by doesn't debate arguing immaculate conception, especially in the days where her punishment might have been stoning. I would suspect the father of Jesus (provided Jesus in fact existed) was some random dude who's name has been lost to time and Mary was a damn good liar.
Watch their heads explode.

Jesus' father?
You could say we are all his father. But it would be a very stupid thing to say, so best not.

This one is an oldie but still very good proof that God exists:
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

A minor point, if you're going to use this on Christians.
The "Immaculate Conception" isn't the doctrine that Mary conceived Jesus by the Holy Spirit; it is the doctrine that Jesus could not have come into the world via a "sin-contaminated" vessel, so Mary had to be without sin-taint, and thus her own birth was miraculously a break from the sins we all inherited from Adam and Eve's Original Sin.
If you want a good laugh at the idea that Mary was impregnated miraculously, Google the video Sealab: 2021 "The Feast of Alvis".
