Ask him why god won't heal amputees?
Be prepared for a dump truck load of bullshit in reply.
Nonetheless, amputated limbs never grow back no matter how much praying is done.

So, is this the open minded character you accuse Christians of not having. If a Christian had posted this about meeting an atheist all the atheist here would be all over the poster.
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.

You act as if we haven't seen your act a thousand times before, G-C. It never gets any better. It's always the same old shit.
How "open-minded" are you to the idea that your god is a load of shit?

Hopefully, the residents will notice the stench from 5 tonnes of bullshit dumped by dump truck somewhere.

The word branch in Hebrew is netzer. The whole Nazarene crap was a mistranslation. Anyone that claims the gospels were written by Jews has to explain how a Jewish document can be anti-semitic.

Godschild is open minded. So open it fell out a few years ago. On another track, everytime I see his name I hear the Exodus song Children Of A Worthless God.

Why, did you really need one, if so why, it's beyond me why anyone could benefit in life from having a starfish, could it be you wanted one to wish upon.

Same old junk, Min. Can't you ever answer a question honestly.

Please elucidate further as I don't see an issue.
He has asked advice from fellow atheists on how to conduct himself in a logical debate with a christian. Nothing more.
What were you expecting on an ATHEIST forum?

Once again your post has no bearing on reality whatsoever. It's almost as if you have a religious form of Tourette's where you involuntarily spew garbage from your mouth without being able to control it.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
