Making sense within the context of senselessness is not making sense by any coherent or meaningful definition. Nor is your response to the reply you quoted meaningful..or coherent.
"Biblical archaeology" is a case example of evidence that discredits magic book. Is that what you thought you were being asked to provide?

The claim that the world was flooded and all of humanity destroyed is a scientifically false claim. So is the claim that a man rose from literal death in the 1st century. If you believe either of these things on faith despite the preponderance of evidence to the contrary, then you need to reexamine your overall criteria for deciding whether you have good reasons to believe things.
Verbatim from the mouth of Jesus (retranslated from a retranslation of a copy of a copy):
"Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you too will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. How can you see your brother's head up his ass when your own vision is darkened by your head being even further up your ass? How can you say to your brother, 'Get your head out of your ass,' when all the time your head is up your own ass? You hypocrite! First take your head out of your own ass, and then you will see clearly who has his head up his ass and who doesn't." Matthew 7:1-5 (also Luke 6: 41-42) Also, I has a website: www.RedbeardThePink.com RE: Atheists don't realize asking for evidence of God is a strawman

If your position is, "I can believe anything I want based on faith alone,' then you arent even participating in a debate. What can't a person believe on faith? I can say, "I believe there is a dragon in my basement. I have no evidence, but I have faith, and that's enough for me." Who can argue with that? It's a non-starter. When I was a little kid, I had a friend who believed with all her heart that she was going to heaven because her name was Mary. She believed so strongly that even I began to wonder how god could send someone to hell who has the same name as the mother of Jesus. I knew a boy who believed he could fly like superman. He was even willing to act on his faith. He tied a towel around his neck like a cape, climbed onto his parent's garage and jumped off. Fortunately, he wasn't killed, but he tore a hole in his leg that went all the way to the bone. Right now, my mother has faith in a Philadelphia preacher who can prove from the Bible that African Americans didn't come from Africa at all but are the original Hebrews. Faith supports whatever you want it to. If faith is enough for you, then hey whatever floats your boat.
The god who allows children to be raped out of respect for the free will choice of the rapist, but punishes gay men for engaging in mutually consensual sex couldn't possibly be responsible for an intelligently designed universe.

I don't know what religious context means. Are you saying that God is real... but only as an idea, and only in the stories of the Bible? Like Superman only exists in the context of a comic book?
I think that makes God and Superman fictional characters ![[Image: nL4L1haz_Qo04rZMFtdpyd1OZgZf9NSnR9-7hAWT...dc2a24480e]](https://external-preview.redd.it/nL4L1haz_Qo04rZMFtdpyd1OZgZf9NSnR9-7hAWTNVY.jpg?width=216&crop=smart&auto=webp&s=7b11e8b38bea0eacc8797fc971574ddc2a24480e)

Something no theist has been able to provide. No, I'm not kidding, because the claims atheists typically want to see evidence for do not rely on a religious context. They (erroneous) claims about how reality works. People can not come back to life after being dead for three days, they cannot walk on walk on water or survive in the belly of a big fish. These things are nonsense, yet they are claims of truth about how the world works. So, perhaps you can be the first to provide evidence that any of these things can happen. I don't suppose we could convince you to get swallowed by a giant fish, could we? Ibe seen people use arguments from ignorance before. This is the first time I've seen anyone use an argument from dumbassery.
