Why I Don't Believe in Atheism

[TheGulegon]

First you'll need to send me $250,000 in exchange for the deed to a house I have for sale that you can't see, or touch, until after your dead! It's worth it, though! The fountain of youth is in there, recently renovated so as to look like a hot tub, and the place's steward, Harvey The Rabbit, will stay on as your butler!

I can PM you the billing address

Ily daddy. Why you don't skypes me?

I promise I'll get on sometime tomorrow, or Sunday
The Guley has some things to do the Pope might frown on

The lawyer in the Guinness World Records who won 400 cases in a row said the best evidential case he has ever seen was for the life, death, burial, resurrection and deity of Jesus.

Most successful lawyer
Sir Lionel Luckhoo (b. 2 Mar 1914), senior partner of Luckhoo and Luckhoo of Georgetown, Guyana, succeeded in getting 245 successive murder-charge acquittals between 1940 and 1985.

So, you're just another liar for Jesus.

I am glad none of us can find a naturalistic explanation to account for the eyewitness testimony of the Apostles. The lawyer in the Guinness World Records who won 400 cases in a row said the best evidential case he has ever seen was for the life, death, burial, resurrection and deity of Jesus. So in terms of evidence, God has provided the best proof we could ever reasonably ask for.

Wait, I knew you weren't the brightest bulb in the chandelier (that's a light fixture consisting of multiple bulbs) ... but you trust a lawyer?

In fact, you nor I can even come up with better evidence for Jesus being God. That's powerful.

Your problem is not that you cannot come up with any better evidence of Jesus Christ. Your problem is that you cannot come up with any evidence at all (that doesn't engage in question-begging).

I thought it was 400, but it is 245. But he is still the most successful lawyer with 245 cases won in a row.

On page 255 of The Case for Christ, Lee Strobel wrote that Sir Lionel Luckhoo subjected the historical facts about the Resurrection to his own rigorous analysis for several years before declaring, "I say unequivocally that the evidence for the resurrection of Jesus Christ is so overwhelming that it compels acceptance by proof which leaves absolutely no room for doubt."

So we can say the greatest evidentialists the world over disagree with you.

Well, that settles it, folks.

Move along now, nothing to see here.

I've read the case for Christ, back when I was in high school and still a devout catholic. Whole it helped reassure young me who believed, even then I knew it contained nothing compelling.

While you can believe the story of the trial, execution, and resurrection if you wish to, it is very clear that large parts are not factually true the same way that George Washington was the first president is true.

Lol, what a pile of steaming horse manure. The case for Christ!

The poll is currently 23 atheists so we know 23 are going to Hell. The 3 that believe atheists are wrong doesn't mean all 3 are saved. They would still have to give their life to Christ. Typically at most only 1 of those 3 would be saved, the rest would go to Hell.

I sense that you don't want to discuss. I sense an imminent banning.
