The reason I do not start threads that will be conversation pieces is because most atheist here do not want to have intelligent conversation about God, Jesus, the Holy Spirit or the Bible, instead they want to insult and derail such conversations. I find most atheist do not know enough about the Bible to have those kinds of conversations, this is not intended as demeaning, it's just fact. They rely on Google or whatever to get as little info as they can to make comments. Using a verse or two for these kinds of conversations is inappropriate for these types of conversations. They also use what others say as fact whether they get it from the forum or the net, they do not know enough about scriptures to form their own opinions, believe me I've tried to get original ideas from them. Again I'm not saying any of this as demeaning, it's what I've observed over the last five years. So I would rather join in on threads where I find interest.

I have gone to churches and bible studies just to get a perspective on what was being taught. I tried to read the bible from front to back but the KJ version is incomprehenible to me with out understanding the english of the times. you must understand that in america most of us where raised as some sort of Christian so you cant say that all atheist just dont understand the bible. we just dont see it the way you do and apparently in your opinion that makes us ignorant to the reading of the bible.
