The Problem with Christians

[FebruaryOfReason]

For others, they would deny it, even if they saw the dead raised, nothing would break down their prejudice.

I am a convinced Atheist. I'll make you a deal.

You show me an instance of someone who starts to live again after being clinically dead for say a week, in a way I can investigate myself* - so that I can rule out any obvious physical explanation - and I will believe in the supernatural.

But there's another half to the bet. If you believe that you are going to spend eternity in heaven, you obviously don't need all your worldly goods. Any possession you have is irrelevant next to the eternal bliss that awaits you.

So give all your money to me, except a bit to feed, clothe and house you. If you know that - ultimately - you're going to be rewarded with far more than money, then anything you have now doesn't matter at all.

Deal?


*This means no "It says in Isiah 1010:2534 that X raised Y from the dead", or "Some guy got swallowed by a whale once and he lived". It means contemporary reports where witnesses are available for interview, and I can visit the scenes myself, examine the physical evidence myself, etc.
