Difference is (and point I was making with the last post) that I'm willing to discuss whether one position is better supported than another. Finding meaning in parts of the Bible, but then shutting down differing opinions by asking if god has appeared to such person, is intellectually dishonest.
So you were trying to shut him down by asking Jesus personally told him those things -or- that was your attempt to give us atheists a chance to see how callow such would be?
