If you make a claim, be prepared to back it up with something other than being in a dream state.
And, for future reference, you can't use the Bible to prove the Bible.
You shouldn't deter religious people, you should encourage them to come.
you've nothing to lose and everything to gain by inviting great discussion.
at the end of the day you're both after meaning and truth - the discussions could cooperate to that end. :-)
Do you get the impression that anyone here believes that your participation has been a great discussion? It's long been a source of amusement for us that, insomuch as there might be religious people capable of having good discussion and even though we likely all know at least one such person in our real lives...they're not the kind of religious people who come here, to these boards, and post. We get the nuts who are an embarrassment even to the less nutty. The baby eaters and ghost whisperers, for example.
My wife doesn't post here, and it's not because of all the atheists.....
