What are some good checkmate arguments against religion?

[Chad32]

I don't know of any big checkmate arguments. Especially since religious people will obviously twist christianity into whatever way they need to conform to their beliefs without abandoning it. You could point out the things that were acceptable in the book that wouldn't hold water in any modern court. You could show them how theocracies don't work. You can show them all the inconsistencies and contradictions. You could even just point out that they have no more hard evidence for their book than any other religious text.

In short, it's probably best to deal with things on an individual basis, than look for one mindblowing thing to trump all believers. If all else fails, just ignore the person.


Well, there is one thing I came up with. I just say I don't accept the basic premise of punishing an innocent to play for the crimes of the guilty, to save them from infinite torture for finite sins.
