Delicate Offers a Truce

[Delicate]

On reflection, I've found this thread illuminating.

I've seen some people respond with grace and restraint, to whom I want to extend the same grace and restraint back (and more).

And yet, I've seen some respond with rage and insults. Not just passive cynicism, but a demeaning sort of cynicism that actively tries to pollute good faith dialogue.

Then there are those in between. Those who WANT to respond in good faith but have unrealistic expectations of me doing 40 years of penance, or giving up on what I take to be true as derived from reason and evidence, etc.

I will add, that the overwhelming reason that the vast majority of atheists give for their disbelief is lack of demonstrable evidence and reasoned argument to support the claim that a god exists.

And you claim to have that demonstrable evidence and reasoned argument for the existence of a god. And not just any god, but a specific one that, according to many Christian sects, will punish us for eternity for the thought crime of not believing he exists. 

Aren't you bound by Peter 3:15 to try to convince us of the truth of your beliefs?

Thanks for the substantive response.

My argument is predominantly that the objections atheists raise, including the one you have, are false.

You haven't been able to refute the evidence provided, many in this very forum.

Pick an argument you think is evidently false. I'll either concede your point out give you good reasons to think your objections don't hold water.
