Jesus did not rise from the dead -- My debate opening statement.

[Drich]

Drich,


Barring the fact that you seemingly only went to a Nondenominational pseudo-christian church is because of some “hot chick,” and a subsequent “hot chick” of whom you eventually married later on, whereas you didn’t attend said church for the reason you’re supposed to be there in the first place.

Reallyy?!?!? then please explain (book chapter and verse) the reasons one must have to attend church..

 

That is, to be brainwashed with selective narratives to swallow a primitive faith that if followed to the letter, you would be in prison for life.

Guess i should have kept reading...

So it seems by your recogning that I perhaps went into a church setting with a measure of skepticism and a level of objectivity that others who were attending said church, did not have???

I would agree.  

So tell me again how this is supposed to be a bad thing?

Your laughable beginnings in being a pseudo-christian will not bode well for you in our debate on the alleged BIBLE Jesus’ existence.

why not?

If I went into church expecting to find nothing but a date at taco bell afterwards, and I do indeed find Christ even under the scrutiny I brought, then is it not possible what I found was legit?

MODERATORS, CAN YOU GIVE DRICH AND MYSELF A THREAD THAT WILL PREVENT OUTSIDE SOURCES FROM ENTERING OUR DISCUSSION, THEREFORE TO KEEP OUT THE SIDELINE NIBBLERS AND THEIR IRRELATIVE INSIPID CHILD LIKE RESPONSES THAT HAVE ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO DO WITH THE TOPIC AT HAND, BUT TO ONLY SHOW THEIR IGNORANCE OF SAID TOPIC?

Drich, stick around and don't run away, okay?  I promise you a great time, but at your expense.

It's been three threads and you keep promising, I am still waiting...

Since your new, and really don't know me so well.. Maybe you can take some inspiration from the old gaurd.
here is 67+ pages anger and hate poured out on me. by just about everyone, minus a hand full of people.

Somehow I'm still here without breaking any rules or loosing my mind. Yet the rest of the board seemed to have lost it's collective mind, because they could not silence me. Most did not like what I had to say, and I cut off any legitimate way to shut me down, and this collective effort was an attempt to do what you are going to do on your own.

Seriously... Read it. I addressed everyone line by line and on point if they had something topical to say. And I did not loose my mind doing it.

Honestly sport, what are you truly going to bring to me that has not already fallen at my feet?

I have been doing this a very long time on line. So just in that, I have just experience you simply do not (evidenced by your unsupported puffer fishing you are doing with your font and peacocking) Nothing to say... just make it colorful/use red as it is a danger color, and make your words bigger than mine. That is all you've done. I've address harder question from second graders. Seriously.. is this it?

Then there's the whole God Thing...

IF I am who I say I am (A simple servant of God) then you are also having to contend with the support he provides me as well. (kinda like you peers did and failed.)

So stop the empty threats and Bring it sport, because i will be swinging for the fences with you.

Drich,

You have never answered my principle objection to the resurrection of Jesus as I outlined in my OP, namely, the following:


Answer this question for me, Drich, and I'll convert, publicly on this board, to whatever brand of Protestantism that you subscribe to.

Haven't read this entire post, time in limited.  However I will respond to your question.  

Whether alien abduction is real or manufactured holds zero sway if a God exists that holds supreme authority over our lives, or how and where you will spend eternity.  Moreover, the aliens nor their abductees make claims to be the Creator of the universe and all that would entail.

Christ does, and His resurrection would be one of many factors to consider to authenticate this.

Welcome to the club my brother.  

Good job as always Drich.

now they want to flip a coin 100 times and I have to get an equal number of heads or some such nonsense.
