One, I'd like to thank all the atheists for making me laugh my ass off.
Your responses to the brothers-in-christ have been witty and entertaining as well as reasonable and logical.
Two, Revelation777, you are an idiot and possibly the worst debater this site has ever seen, but I don't want you to ever leave. Your moronic responses gave everyone a chance to not only look brilliant in comparison but engage in a theater of comedy.
Thank you Atheist Forums. You are some funny fuckin people. 
Perhaps I need to work on my debating skills but you are probably bias because you are an atheists. The Romans found it entertaining to throw believers to the lions. Not too much has changed I guess?
@ Cinjin - You nailed it! I've subscribed to this thread to make sure I don't miss any of the funnies.
@ Revelation777 - No one here threw you to the lions. It's not like anyone went out and recruited you to this site. And, you knew when you came in that you'd be vastly outnumbered by disbelievers who pride themselves on their intelligence and rationality.
You slathered yourself up with meat tenderizer and steak sauce and threw yourself to the lions.
You came charging in -- so sure of your ability to win souls for Jesus by merely tossing around Bible verses and asserting some (nice sounding to you but vapid and meaningless to us) platitudes. That's an interesting mix of gullibility and arrogance you've got there; it doesn't help your cause at all but it sure does amuse us.

...and if and when you do take a look at what you've written, be sure to replace "Jesus" with "Allah" and imagine you're reading the posts of someone arguing for Islam. It will help you a great deal if you can remove the special pleading and confirmation bias from your own self-analysis.

I'm not here to be your jester. I understand I am on a board filled with people who don't believe in God and I am open for insults, put downs, and rejections. I feel I am sent here on a mission. I am not going to get discouraged by the results. Some people think I'm a simpleton, gullible, or ignorant. I believe in the Truth of who Christ is and stand by Him not any merits of my own. I believe that the Truth can set you free. I love all you atheists on this board and have been praying for you daily. Call me a nut or to take a flying leap, however, I am motivated my the love of the Lord.

There is a big gulf between Christianity and Islam. Islam is based on works, Christianity is based on the finished work of Christ. Sorry that all "religions" may sound the same but I am claiming that Christ is the one and only true Savior and yes I will plead for you to go to Him.
1Co_1:18 For the word of the cross is folly to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.

Since you have no problem believing your god was always existing and was not himself "made," why do you claim that the universe, in whatever form it is in at the moment, cannot have the same qualities?
Because you base your views on Science, mine is on faith.

I'm amazed you think it is "news." Surely I can't be the first to point out to you that you are a shithead? That is beyond the realm of probabilities.
Let us talk about these things in an appropriate manner as two mature respectful adults.

Advantage: Islam.
Do I need to explain why?
Let's assume there is a god.
Let's then assume there is an afterlife.
Then let's assume this afterlife involves a judgment day where the deity evaluates what ultimate fate we should receive.
Given all those assumptions, which is more likely?
1. The deity evaluates us on the basis of how we lived our lives.
2. The deity is only interested in whether or not we were gullible enough to believe the correct unproven metaphysical belief system and we were lucky enough to be born in the right place where we could be properly indoctrinated in the correct belief system.
I mean, I know you'll quote The Wholly Babble here but for a moment, put the book down and try to think logically about...
Oh, who am I kidding. Of course you'll think option #2 makes perfect sense, right?

Very perceptive. I certainly do.

You believe absent any evidence. Have you ever asked yourself why?
Skepticism is not a position; it is an approach to claims.
Science is not a subject, but a method.

Nah - at this point you are just here for my personal amusement. If you were 5 or 6 I could respect your absurd belief in nonsense figuring you would grow out of it eventually.
You're hopeless.

The fossil record does show it, you just happen to be ignorant.

Because the Bible is a politically collected bunch of myths that portray a psychopathic 'god' and cruel, barbaric, xenophobic goat fucke herders.
You obviously are not familiar with the fossilrecord

From the guy who rejects evolution despite overwhelming evidence, and supports Noah's Ark and the great flood despite any evidence, all this shows is how meaningless and subjective a Christian's understanding of "Truth" is.
