I've come to the realisation that I have no right to discuss history, biology, geology and physics like I know what I'm saying. The only thing any of us here can discuss in confidence is philosophy because all we need is a working mind. With that being said, I can now only refute religion by first properly understanding what the theist is saying philosophically/theologically.If you default to honestly questioning God and view Him as He presents himself scripturally, then you will eventually find Him dispite yourself and your initial motives... IF you stay true to looking to understand the God of the bible and not some ideal of Him.

Haven't quite thought this one through have you? The Jews who followed Christ back then what were they called? Jews or Christians? (They were Christians, matter of fact there was a big debate on whether or not one had to become a jew first and then convert to Christianity.) Even so the remaining Jews that are here are here in accordance to what Chirst said. (That the Jewish people will not be disolved/pass from this earth till His second comming.)
