I am ashamed to say that I have creationist stepbrothers. But I am glad to say that they are no relation to me. There doesn't appear to be any creationist idiocy in my close family's DNA at all.

My cousins are creationists, enough to fill 8-9 large churches in this area alone. Boss Lady says I must have been adopted.  Cool

But then again you claim to see Jesus every day so you're not a very reliable witness.

Having spiritual eyes gives me the advantage over you, what I see brings life, what you do not see brings death.

About what did the theist win? surely not about gods existence, because as far as I am aware god is still an unproven hypothesis.

He is only unproven to those who care nothing about their eternal destination. Science is full of many unproven things yet you accept them as fact.

And these Christian dudes who thinks there is ground for them to stand on and dust they can leave atheists using the same reliable faculties that told them god spoke to them.

He who has ears let him hear and the deaf shall receive eternal punishment.

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.

Infantile claims doubled down upon doesn’t gradually become true. It only appear to become more true to delusional emotionally needy dimwits.

I've noticed a few theists now with this need to announce themselves victorious. I expect it must stem from an inner insecurity, that they can't simply allow the reader to make their own mind up, they have to tell them who won.

I've seen the same out of atheist when they were clearly defeated. Not me but we have Christians here who can stand their ground and do a fine job of leaving an atheist in the dust.

Sure, atheists are equally capable of having no idea what they're talking about and claiming victory repeatedly.

"Clearly defeated" is very subjective though, it's kind of my point.

LOL! If constantly threatening people with death and torture is "spiritual" then I'm so glad I'm not part of it.
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"

Scientists claim creationists did indeed evolve from monkeys.   Monkeys swear otherwise, hire Avenatti, and threaten class action defamation suits on every continent.

I did not threaten you with anything, you are an afraid little man who wants to hide from the God who has given you life.

Clearly defeated isn't subjective as long as one takes the facts and reasons with them.
