I'm actually glad to see you're not going to stick to your guns on this; the Bible is a pretty crappy weapon, no matter how much your heart is or isn't into it.

I had no guns to stick to my squirming friend. So did you manage to stop beating yourself up now?

Look how butthurt this guy is. Don't be mad you can't verify "miracles" with demonstrable facts.

Or did you forget the burden of proof is on you to prove miracles with sufficient evidence... Wink
If the hypothetical idea of an afterlife means more to you than the objectively true reality we all share, then you deserve no respect.

If I'd claimed anything then the burden would indeed be mine. Did you see me claiming anything? Do you often imagine things which aren't there?

Oh right. You know you can't prove anything, so you just insinuate it and slither away from questions.

Not only intellectually dishonest, but an intellectual scumbag.
