Open letter to Christians

[Nihilist Virus]

I realize the thread was not directed to me as an atheist but this is the first time we've met so I'm saying hello.  No, that won't do.  I've also got to say I like the cut of your jib.  That was a powerful first post, and certainly placed in the correct sub-forum.  

I am now going to go "rep" you as a token of my esteem.  I couldn't follow your rebuttal post where you went all chapter and verse on Godschild and Orangebox.  (Scripture makes me sleepy and sometimes a little nauseated.)  Some of the Christians we get here are always begging us to cite scripture.  Some of the atheists here are able to do so better than most Christians, Mr Agenda for one.  You obviously have the 'knowledge' too.

If it makes you feel any better I didn't make an introduction thread for the better part of a year when I first showed up.  Suit yourself, I always do.  Etiquette is always optional.

Thanks, I very much appreciate everything you said.

Very well.

More like encouraged than required. Welcome to the forum, NV, I hope you like it here.

Thanks.  I'm on christianforums.com, too, and this is definitely a breath of fresh air in comparison.

My name is a reference to the fact that I do not believe in logical axioms as being absolutely true.  But thanks for the disgusting comment. You represent your savior well.  He condemned dining with sinners and of course encouraged all who would listen to judge others.

Your name associates you with tearing everything down, don't dodge the definition of what you claim to be. Don't blame the truth for your hurt feelings.
Now to address your lack of knowledge of scriptures, Jesus was condemned by the priest for eating with sinners and told us to be careful about our judgment of others. I didn't judge you I stated a fact about what your religious view is, simple and certain, sorry you got your feelings hurt.

Your name associates you with mass murder, genocide, bigotry, slave owning, patriarchy, and rape as a cultural norm.  God is credited with killing more people than Hitler.

So there's that.

Lol OK.  Read the post above yours where I prove beyond any doubt that there are contradictions.

You proved nothing, I have a hard time on the keyboard being one handed at this time, so I'm not going to be doing all the typing it takes to defend my argument. Sorry but that's just the way it is until I heal.

LOL, did the dog eat your homework too?

The Bible does say that God has limited Satan's power over man so we could use our free will.

Where does it say that and why is it relevant? This means Satan couldn't have altered the Bible?

   Like I said earlier you don't know anything about the scriptures and you continue to prove it. Satan couldn't touch Job without coming before God an getting permission. It's relevant because it nullifies your argument. Correct God would never allow Satan to plant the first lie into His Word, what's the matter with you this is simple logic.

Satan is the god of this world (2 Corinthians 4:4).  Satan apparently owned things that Jesus could not freely take from him, as shown when Satan tempted Jesus (Matthew 4:8-11).  The story of Job shows that Satan has limited power in comparison to God (didn't we already know this?) but also shows that God is more or less apathetic to human suffering and is willing to let Satan amuse himself.

Simply put, Satan has less power than God, but clearly far more than any man.  Satan is also motivated to corrupt the Bible.  The Bible is clearly corruptible, as it contradicts itself.  So it is logical to conclude that Satan's deliberate efforts should at least match our accidental blunders.  What's the matter with you?  This is simple logic.

You've struck out pretty bad here.  I mean not even any foul-ball strikes.  3 pretty bad whiffs.

In fact...
