How to shut up people who are against abortion

All that's required is that the people you grow up with provide some positive reinforcement to the truthfulness of the god claim.
No, still wasn't "indoctrinated". If anything I helped de-indoctrinate my dad who was an ex-Catholic.
I was more drawn to what was wrong about the Bible than to what was "truth". I was asked my opinion of passages and I was never told or coerced into believing anything.

I have no idea where you're coming from with this one...

"It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter heaven".

Rope would have been an anolgy that (sh)would be understood, "camel" just requires a whole shitload of appologetics to make it even remotely appear to be the intended meaning. Your interpretation may vary.

Projecting, much?

Also, Ockham's Razor time: Gotta prove the existence of god before any of the claims about him are valid anyway.

I notice we all seem to fall prey to that whole thing. We love arguing the finer points, and I especially love it, but when you cut to the point, suddenly none of it has any bearing.

Proselytizing and discussions about religions always have one thing in common; they ultimately are pointless. It's like discussing how many feathers an angel's wings have; it's fun to talk about in the context of if it were real but the fact remains there's nothing to the claims to begin with.

Suddenly takes the wind out of the whole thing.

I tried getting "right to the point", it made ya'all pretty fucking mad...

"No definitive tests to diagnose mental disorders blah blah blah" and "A zygote/fetus is an individual human lifeform"

Damn crybaby.
