*sighs harder* All Atheists comments boil down to the same thing: "I don't know what I'm talking about but what I have to say is sounds right, so I will say it anyway."

How do you think you will get into the golden cube called New Jerusalem if you are not a member of one of the twelve tribes of Israel?

That's the funny part of christianity ^ even if you are a christian you need to be apart of one of the twelve tribes to get into heaven

Dude with a holy book full of fantastical imagery wants to know the exact, real ramifications of somebody else's holy book and the fantastic imagery therein.

Maybe if you have a presupposed conclusion and you don't read so well.

In all your time here Drich, you've never succeeded at anything other than giving me further reason to loathe christianity for it's barbarity and idiocy.  Assuming that your christianity is the true christianity isn't helpful in that regard.  

If everyone except yourself is somehow mistaken, perhaps you should let everyone persist in those misconceptions that are less harmful to your faith than your own convictions clearly are? Think of it this way, if it were fairly simple for most of us to pass on an incompetent gods offer, how would arguing for a douche god change that scenario? Is the understanding of god that you're offering truly the understanding of god you wish for others to have? I doubt it. I doubt it because you seem to have an understanding of god that is not supported by your own comments, your "arguments" backfire on you constantly, leaving the audience with an impression that you clearly disagree with and waste further effort arguing against.

There's no sense in painting god as an unfathomable prick if that's not what you want others to believe about god. It doesn't help, and it's no correction in the first place. Understand?

I trust first century metaphysics with the same confidence that I trust first century medicine.

Not much.

From what I've seen so far, it appears that a lot of this forum's members are former Christians, and although they no longer believe in God, any one of them ought to be able to give you the answer to this question:

Romans 3:28-30
28 For we maintain that a person is justified by faith apart from the works of the law. 29 Or is God the God of Jews only? Is he not the God of Gentiles too? Yes, of Gentiles too,30 since there is only one God, who will justify the circumcised by faith and the uncircumcised through that same faith.

Do you have an example of one of these many 'back fires?"
