Why do christers like you always assume we haven't read that tripe? Many, if not most, atheists came from religious homes and religious upbringing. Many were believers themselves before reason found its way through the cracks in faith.
I've read that worthless bit of iron age fantasy from cover to cover twice. There is nothing compelling there to convince me that it is anything other than iron age story telling. Even viewing it as a work of fiction it fails due to logical inconsistencies, internal contradictions and plot holes you can drive a truck through. The only way I've ever been able to find "enlightenment" from the buy-bull is by setting one on fire on a dark night.

I'm not, I'm just saying that some of the scriptures have personally helped me throughout my life. I'm just trying to help some of the people here, that may have not read the Bible, and I hope to affect someone's life positively.
I'm curious though, why do you believe anyone here needs your brand of help?!?
