It's not an issue of convincing me (I'm actually pretty easy to convince, btw, what with not having any sacred cows to maintain). The reason I'm not a christian has nothing to do with my inability to believe in your god, or whether or not your god is, in fact, real.
But you just said that even if God himself approached you, you would not believe, so I think you are admitting that nothing could convince you.
No, Trips...I didn't...I said that I still wouldn't be a christian. I want you to understand this, because you seem to think that people have been disagreeing with you because they don't believe, or because they don't want to believe. Because of some uncomfortable conclusion they wish to avoid. I truly and frankly do not give a shit. Were your god were real, fine...I'm still not a christian and those facts to which you've been made aware are still no less true. If god "created" us..evolution is how he did it.
I disagree with you on point of facts because you are plainly and demonstrably wrong, not because I -need- to. Understand?
