Atheists don't realize asking for evidence of God is a strawman

[Rhondazvous]

I'd like to take this a step even further.  If your position is, "I can believe anything I want based on faith alone,' then you arent even participating in a debate.  What can't a person believe on faith?  I can say, "I believe there is a dragon in my basement.  I have no evidence, but I have faith, and that's enough for me."  Who can argue with that?  It's a non-starter.

When I was a little kid, I had a friend who believed with all her heart that she was going to heaven because her name was Mary. She believed so strongly that even I began to wonder how god could send someone to hell who has the same name as the mother of Jesus.

I knew a boy who believed he could fly like superman. He was even willing to act on his faith. He tied a towel around his neck like a cape, climbed onto his parent's garage and jumped off. Fortunately, he wasn't killed, but he tore a hole in his leg that went all the way to the bone.

Right now, my mother has faith in a Philadelphia preacher who can prove from the Bible that African Americans didn't come from Africa at all but are the original Hebrews.

Faith supports whatever you want it to. If faith is enough for you, then hey whatever floats your boat.
