Ah... Generic non specific memes... The sweet smell of intellectual defeat.

The only think better is a 20 min ad hom youtube rant.. Got one of those up your sleeve too?

The only "think" better?  Nice job making a typo while putting someone else down for making 
a typo, dripshit.  Lol

And notice how Dripshit considers himself intellectually superior to somebody else. Considering that I've seen dead goldfish display more intelligent characteristics than he does, that's some fair conceit.

ah... So the light flickers and FINALLY goes on.

So then, if God does not exist, then why oh, why spend so much time arguing the finer points of salvation, just to loose and default to a generic if all else fails 'god does not exist' argument?

The point of this teeth kicking and victory lap is to have you ask a question rather than try and 'correct' a point you do not fully comprehend.

Take all of the "teeth kicking" and "victory laps" your fragile ego needs, Dripshit.  None of us could care less.
I don't argue the finer points of "salvation", which is a fantasy made up by priests to control sheeple.  When a person has been lied to for decades, it is therapeutic to deconstruct those lies for one's own mental health.  
IF I ever needed to ask questions about these things that don't exist, (I can't ever imagine that happening for any reason) I know a lot of priests and preachers.  I would never ask an internet troll with the logic skills and writing style of a 10-year-old.

Your assertions have exactly the same amount of credibility as a young Batman-obsessed boy who goes to school claiming that he got his own batphone, and gets to talk to Batman every day. -- Except that his choice of literature is better.  The comics are a lot more believable than the Bible.  The only logical response to the claim is "prove it".  And you can't.

An emotion NOT based on circumstance. (Which is my point that counters your statement)

Therefore is it not possible for another emotion to NOT be based on circumstance?

They're all based on circumstance. How someone appears (love them or hate them) into your life is a circumstance.

Because magic doesn't actually work

Sure it does. Now you see it, now you don't. See, magic.

I don't even know what magic actually is. Obviously informally, I do. But if we were to try and define magic, I fear it would be a similar appeal to the argument from ignorance/incredulity as with the supernatural.

I think that's why it's magic lol

I do   its making something appear supernatural by tricking the observer .... Mmmm pretty much describes religion then ....

Oh yeah

It's also tricking someone into thinking something there is agency behind something when there is no reason to think that there is. Or screwing around with flawed probability statements.
