I guess it never occurs to the religious that their hatespeech-as-piety sounds alot like profanity to everyone else.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Not pertinent to your point but I'm surprised if there is any certainty regarding the viability of a species continuing from only one couple. Of course it would be greatly diminished as a species and the likelihood that it would retain a resistant population for any of a number of recurrent diseases would be mighty slim. Still it seems like a crap shoot rather than a null. But, since I don't know the bible, I don't assume I know it all.

I was about six or seven years when I spotted the first of many plot holes in the story, it became a fascinating way to pass time in religious lessons. I asked one of the carmelite bastards a question only a kid would ask, but still a pertinent question today; 'Sister Mary Clair, if the devil makes people naughty the why doesn’t god kill him'. Her eyes went as wide as dinner plates and emitted gamma rays; You're to young to understand!
She either didn't know or she was lying, at seven years old I realised the story of Christianity was a complete crock.
It's amazing 'science' always seems to 'find' whatever it is funded for, and never the oppsite. Drich.

Agree. Being told that I'm so evil that I must accept a proxy human sacrifice to avoid eternal torture actually crosses the line from profanity into verbal and psychological abuse.

You nor anyone else has ever defeated anything presented from scripture. Those newly hatched atheist you are speaking of mostly use bad language and senseless talk to make an impression on the older atheist here, and you guys fall for it and defend such drivel. Shame on you for lowering yourself to such a level.

Scripture has never made a coherent argument that needs defeating. It's all self defeating except to the blind, the gullible and the willfully ignorant.

That doesn't answer my question. If I don't point out your spelling errors, are you going to point out that I didn't point out your spelling errors, like you did in the post that prompted my question? Yes or no would cover it.
I'm not sure what post you are speaking of.

Defeated anything from scripture? I could say that you haven't defeated anything from Lord of the Rings. Both are works of fiction. Yet you are making an assumption that we do not, that scripture isn't fiction. There is no reason to believe that scripture is anything other than made up nonsense, and plenty of reason to believe that it is.
You know your own particular brand of fiction like a true fan boy and can only make strawman arguments against evidence based science because you don't understand what you are arguing against.
All that's false, period.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.

I don't correct your misspellings, but I do address your points.
Oddly enough, you reply to me very rarely.
My takeaway is that you'd rather find fault in the behavior of others rather than answer questions. So now I not only ignore your misspellings, but your points as well.
Perhaps if you quit whining about little stuff and replied to more important things, you'd swing a bigger bat. Just sayin'.
