You just did Wink

Then he must exist! I've convinced myself and that's all that counts!

Now that's some good news!
Don't make me post the physics showing that Santa is an impossibility. I warn you nobody will like it if I do.

Look we all know that these arguments based on word games and circular logic supercede physics. Also I really WANT to believe in Santa and that is a force that can split atoms!

There is no god. Jesus Christ walked the Earth and is the son of God.

Or, to be more realistic:
There is no real reason to believe in God. It's plausible that a man named Jesus walked the Earth and preached the same thing as the Jesus in the Gospels, but there's no compelling reason to believe he has any relation to any God.

I said I would watch and post tally points on occasion. I do not want to be a part of this debate beyond that. I did not come here to debate. Just to get a tally of how many could say those two statements in succession, with my hypothesis of zero. I could mirror the experiment for Christians, and I may do so soon. I just am a busy mom with a house to clean and people to feed. Reading your posts is just a blessing and confirmation that the verse holds true to it's word. Thank you.

I'm not. He's an arrogant christian troll who doesn't even think of atheists as fellow human beings. Hell, even in my most fundamentalist christian days, we were taught that nonbelievers were first and foremost fellow human beings who deserved respect. Apparently believers are now taught that nonbelievers are worthless pieces of crap whose only use to to be talked down to and preached at.

(Emphasis mine.)

Troll. Get rid. Please?
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

Wonder why Hunter ignored that both Napole....short guy with Drakes coffee cake in his breast pocket...and rev. rye both said exactly what was asked? Guess saying it was gonna prove god and the bible wrong was a damn lie.
