Typical argument from the bible as if the bible is the ultimate authority on everything. Until they learn that we don't accept the bible as an authority they will keep using it to attack our beliefs. Christians don't see God's law as not applying to anyone, but to everyone. They have no concept of "opt-out."

Some times I think it would be fun to go to one of those holy roller churches and laugh at the idiots rolling around on the floor babbling nonsense, then congratulating themselves for being "filled with the Holy Spirit."
My wife's sister attended one of those churches once while church shopping with her then-husband. Once. She was pretty freaked out by it and realized quickly that she didn't want to be a part of a lunatic church like that.
Christian apologetics is the art of rolling a dog turd in sugar and selling it as a donut.
