My problem is atheist seem to refuse anything we state, no consideration of it's possible validity. To totally disregard the Bible just because one doesn't like what said in it IMO is being dishonest.
You've been here for almost 5 years AND that's the reason why you think we reject the Bible?!
And we're the ones being dishonest
You are a joke.Reasons for rejecting the Bible:
1. Historical inaccuracies
2. Scientific inaccuracies
3. Internal and external contradictions
4. Written decades to centuries after the alleged events it contains
5. Not written by eye witnesses
Other than a few historical events and people that have been corroborated from other sources, there is no reason to accept any of the supernatural events in the Bible.
You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.
