But my point is you are the one doing the prompting, not in any response to anyone and I'm honestly curious why. You post lots of topics about this, demanding proof and evidence without there being an argument in the first place. To me it comes across that you either secretly want to believe or you want to continue to re hash your own arguments against it to further convince yourself. You see when someone is convinced of something they no longer feel the need to discuss its validity.
I could be wrong, just my observation, you can ignore it.
I hold christianity to a higher standard since i used to be a christian (for a extreme short amount of time). All i need is evidence to believe.
I didn't choose to be atheist it's just if you read the bible in whole none of it makes any logical since what so ever.
^ Really?
Not sure how that works. Would that be equivalent of me saying I didn't choose to be Christian, but when I read the Bible it all just made sense?
I understand the need for evidence to believe, but I've said it many times before, I think for some there is just no amount of evidence that a modern skeptic couldn't simply explain away.
We are not made happy by what we acquire but by what we appreciate.
