i gave multiple reasons. one is referancing logic used by athiests that if they can prove a single inconsistancy in the bible that the whole thing is wrong. second is the fact that it's not going to matter if i do. and it's just lazy to referance me to a site and argue with points listed on the site to you.
Oh! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand
Between their loved home and the war's desolation!
Blest with victory and peace, may the heav'n rescued land
Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation.
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto: "In God is our trust."
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
-4th verse of the american national anthem

well apparently all you people do on these forms is make fun of us so the question is what would you do w/o us?
"people who dont like their beliefs mocked shouldnt have such funny beliefs" I dont know who said that but it seemed apt.

And its supposed to be funny, it is called ironic humour.
Setting up a paradoxical situation for comedic affect.

my post "well apparently all you people do on these forms is make fun of us so the question is what would you do w/o us?" was meant to be a joke as well. no one took it that way

No, you just gave that one reason. Why are you lying? Do you want me to quote the post again? Also, I never used that logic (although if you believe the Bible is literally the word of God, it's a sound argument). Stop lying.
And as I said, Minimalist gave you a specific example (not a link) to respond to, and you've ignored it. Stop avoiding it.
So basically, lie, misrepresent, twist and ignore are your tricks here. Seen it all before, got anything new?

Probably because people doubt that you have the intelligence to manage irony, at a guess.
Just realised that I actually moved a conversation from the 'Theists are insecure' thread into this one - not sure how I managed that. Sorry, mods.

ok let me redefign what i said. i have multiple reasons not to go through every verse on that site. i listed them in my last post

Oh ok, let's have a look at your new reasons.
1. As I said, I never used that logic, though if you believe the Bible is literally the word of God, only one thing would need to be wrong to invalidate that theory, surely?
2. Assuming that I would not respond to evidence, which is you projecting your own opinions onto my character with no just cause, which I resent. On what basis do you claim that it wouldn't matter anyway? You don't have nearly enough information to make that claim.
3. It might be lazy to JUST do that, but since I've been shredding you to pieces in addition to providing a link, I think it's ok to refer to external material. On top of that, for the third time, Minimalist has provided you with something in the other thread to respond to, which you have ignored, and continue to ignore.
Not blown away by your revised reasons, dickhead. Anything else?

Live a long fulfilled life without religious interference.
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence - Carl Sagan
Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.
Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.
You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.

Theists aren't generally known for their sense of humour.
You are currently experiencing a lucky and very brief window of awareness, sandwiched in between two periods of timeless and utter nothingness. So why not make the most of it, and stop wasting your life away trying to convince other people that there is something else? The reality is obvious.
