I believe no definitive physical evidence would be more accurate.

I know plenty about Christianity, and in fact I think I learned more since being an atheist than when I was an unquestioning, blindly-believing Christian.

They think we need to as them questions because most of them are convinced we are atheists only because we don't know enough about christianity. However, the opposite is usually true - atheists know more about christianty than most christians. I would go so far as to say that a higher percentage of atheists have read the entire Bible than christians have.

Like you, DT, I am a former christian. I know more about christianity than I want to know. But, if I don't know something, I probably know someone who does or I already know where to look for it.

Ok then, why would you believe in a god when there is no evidence for it and plenty against.

That is to say, from reading the bible you can date the earth to 6000 years and discover that all life was 'created' in an instant as was the cosmos and world. That the only two children in the world fought and one killed the other and then went off and got married, that you can live in whale etc etc etc.
It isnt just bullshit, it is silly bullshit.

What does that even mean? You understand that's as silly as saying "Loki is master of my pleasure!" or "Thor is chief of my labour!" please don't make nonsensical statements if you want people to take you seriously.

No, I had it right the first time. But I appreciate you trying to wiggle a toe in the door.

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

I suppose the best question to ask (after asking whether the troll intends to answer any questions at all) is why he came here if not to proselytize.
