Official debate with local pastor.
January 23, 2012 at 2:18 pm
Hey guys my friend's pastor is going to attempt saving my soul through logic and reason but he also has an advantage over me. He is 40 something and has read almost every bible I can think of except which of those that are forbidden. I can easily unsettle most christian's using logic to point out their faults but this is kinda like the biggest wolf in the pack. He actually invited me to lunch so we can talk then in private about religion and god. It would really help me out if you guys could give me some advice or a few spears to throw at him. haha

Just point out that his logic is invalid as he uses a pre-supposition or assumption that there must be a god.
Or show him some of Min's translations (look up mins previous threads)
Lastly, he doesn't have an advantage over you. He's read every bible, i've read every Harry Potter, so what?

haha, i'm joking, obviously do not insult him, but be strong in your arguments, you need to come across as nice but forthright.

Oh, pastor gonna attempt to save your soul through by logic and reason? Lure him into logical trap. Any flawed logical premises will be dismissed easily, like Pascal's wager, for example.

Doesn't have to be fun, just has to be a good person because if we are not christians won't see why they are wrong.
