From there, it's just a matter of what deity makes best sense, and from there, the Bible provides a lot of evidence (yup, your forums have been invaded by a Christian - I was once an atheist so I get it). I guess, ask me about it - I'll try and respond, but I'm not sure how to turn on notifications for this site.

I'm a little disappointed that a former atheist would use an argument from ignorance and false dichotomy in the same paragraph. Just goes to show that not all atheists are rational skeptics.

It also shows that christians will say anything to make themselves sound like they're actually thinking.
