Aggressive evangelical Christians are some of the most annoying people you can be around. Some churches put a lot of pressure on their followers to constantly witness to people. I admit I did this to a few friends when I was a Christian.

Encounter with a 19 year old man child theist
|
Well I don't want to do this, but it's likely that few of you clicked on that Pastebin list, so I'll just put it here. See previous warning:
Quote:That he’s special Quote:This continued all year, until summer vacation, where I basically said "Fuck you." to him. You have a lot of patience, young man.
Okay, we get it, the guy wasn't up to stuff. However, there aren't any atheist; saying God doesn't exist isn't the same as believing he does. Since the creation of the world, God's eternal power and divine nature have been clearly seen, so people are without excuse. Did you actually think that the nature of man which is at enmity with God, would go down without a fight? One defense for this nature is to wrap itself in a veneer of intellectualism, but in doing so, the person still knows God exists because of their conscience which is an integral part of their spiritual component (made in the image of God). Created spiritual being once created, never cease to exist; aka, the angels watched God laid out the foundation of the earth 4.5 bya, and as such, will always know of God forever.
Atheist Credo: A universe by chance that also just happened to admit the observer by chance.
And the lunatic fringe checks in to say "hi."

Gnostic ignorance is a thing, ya know? It's the worst kind of ignorance, because it's the kind of ignorance that refuses to adjust itself to the truth.

And that, regardless of any theologian or scientist! What? You got something else? Truth is whatever can be shown to be true. It's what the facts are and if don't want to show me any facts, then don't force me to believe. Quote:Get this right here; science will NEVER disprove God! God will NEVER disprove observed science--EVER! It's not supposed to. It's a way of looking at empirical reality. It is the best method so far for doing so. God is nothing than metaphysical what if, only seemingly exist in minds of humans, created as an anthropization of nature.

I would say, however, that we know your god (whoever that may be), if it is defined in a way that is impossible, your God does not exist. Quote:Since the creation of the world, God's eternal power and divine nature have been clearly seen, so people are without excuse. God didn't say that. Human scribes in the Roman Empire said that and their words are now being interpreted as speaking for him. You just assume that this god created the world as is, as an apriori assumption. The evidence for your god in this world is nothing more than human confirmation bias, selection bias, and interpretations of events in the world. It's rather weird that the events that happen in the world that attributed to god, are same things that would have happened anyway. Quote: Did you actually think that the nature of man which is at enmity with God Prove that with facts, please. Quote:One defense for this nature is to wrap itself in a veneer of intellectualism, but in doing so, the person still knows God exists because of their conscience which is an integral part of their spiritual component (made in the image of God). This nothing than an assumption to play willful ignorance. How do you know that your god created our conscience and was responsible for the creation of our " spiritual component"? For all, I and you must admit, that it could equally Allah in the form of your god, aliens or one huge hallucination. The thing is you can and don't know that! You are assuming it on faith, an unreasonable belief. It's also nothing more than saying "SHILL!!!" to someone whos refuting your band of conspiracy theory.
