So this is what I've gathered from so far:
Also, back in the days of the Roman reign they had fair and just courst systems. There is no reason why they would have killed Jesus for nothing. If then Jesus did exsit and did died on the cross there would have been a huge outcry form his followers and there would have been many writings about his death which there are none (that I know of anyway), except in the Bible. There are many more strong arguments against Christianity.
The question now is: why are there so many religious people in the world? There is a little saying: "If all the cars are driving in the opposite direction, turn around, you're going the wrong way!". I know many very bright and rational people and most of them are Christians. I know some atheists that have even gone back to Christianity even after they've argued against it! Makes me wonder...

Pope Alfred Wrote:Logically, the philosophy types rightly point out that you can't totally, 100% disprove the existence of a God.
But there again, the chances are so minimal that in practice you can ignore the possibility, as with Russel's teapot and the FSM (sorry, folks!).
Pope Alfred Wrote:Then it's been clearly shown that prayers aren't answered, contrary to many clear biblical promises. My favourite is to go for the fundamental basic differences between the various christian sects; it's easy to show that very few christians have much idea of what they actually believe in.

Someone who walked on water, made a dead man come back to life, cured lepers, rose from dead and claimed to be God almighty himself, and you need to be convinced otherwise that there is something wrong with the story. Nope I can't think of anything other than that.
