We will respond, no doubt, but if you want a real answer about what most Christians believe, AF isn't really the right venue.
As Minimalist once observed, AF has a pretty shitty collection of theists. I actually agree in the sense that myself, Drich, Godschild, Rondee, professor, etc. are not truly representative of the larger Christian community. The very fact that we are on AF at all shows that we are a rather eclectic bunch, especially those of us that are particularly active.
By all means, point out all the flaws of religious ideas to each other to your hearts content. We Christians are happy to participate with our objections. No need to intentionally bait us, we're already walking into the buzz-saws voluntarily.
That's all I had to say.
Unfortunately most Christian forums won't even allow you to post questions like that. The second they here atheist they ban your ass.
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
