If you can't take responsibility for your own words and actions without whining about what others have done to you, you just don't have a moral center. Cleave tightly to your objective, god-given morals. It's really all you have.
Nice way to avoid the subject! And you cling tightly to your lie.

That reaction is a little telling, actually, that you'd look at a thread that started with a story about a man deliberately faking a miracle (where's your condemnation for him, incidentally?) and decide that, since we're talking about specific examples of christian liars conning people for their faith, we must be talking about all christians!
Is the connection between "lying" and "christianity" so strong in your mind? Or is it, which I think is more likely, that you aren't actually reading the posts and are leaping to the defense of something you haven't really bothered to comprehend? Did you just see "christian" and "lie" in the thread title and jump to a conclusion?
How would you respond to a thread subject: "Atheist motives to lie"?
Or... would I need some pluralization for it to bother you?
There is no motivation for an atheist to lie for his Belief - he does not have one.
Atheism is not a belief system - nor is it an individual belief - it is not a religion - nor is it a religious preference.
Atheist is actually the REJECTION of a belief in a "god"
