I can verify what you are telling me since it's factual. Religion isn't about finding facts, it is about believing in a fantasy, one that sometimes serves a person as a buffer to reality.
When you turn off religion, reality is always there. Should be considered an illegal substance considering all the damage it does. lol
So you would not consider me arrogant if I were relaying to you something that was factual?
I am glad you say that.
So the matter really is whether or not Christianity is true. You see, the central tenets of Christianity are subject to verification and falsification, which excludes it from the category of fantasy which you so desperately want it to be in.
It is fantasy, it doesn't require me placing it in that category.
And no, if you present facts that I'm unaware of that can be objectively proven or disproven, the sheer fact that I disagree with you, wouldn't cause me to view you as arrogant.
Christianity isn't based on facts. Sigh.
"We live in a fallen world," is not factual. Really, discipulus? lol
