This is all too easy if your understanding of 'life' is limited one's mortal existance. for there are countless stories of people being 'saved' by the change of life style that usally is accompanied with belief in God.
Now if you want proof is salvation after this life then you have to accept that their is a God who sustains life after this one is over. Otherwise what is the point of this conversation?

Complete asshattery right here. A god saving anyone would be clear-cut evidence of magic, which has never been presented by anyone at any time. "Saved" requires quotation marks because you want to play wordgames. Bullshit. No one's been saved. The point? There wont be any so long as you set yourself up for garbage like that last post. I've said it before and I'll say it again, you have nothing to offer.

Care to point me in the direction of a highlights reel? The earth being a sphere has been believed by other cultures (and sometimes by cultures that previously believed it was a turtle) throughout history. Not that any of them had any actual idea what the shape of the earth was, but, a broken clock is wrong twice a day.
When you thought it was wrong you all lined up and pointed to your 'translations' to dance around what you thought was a slain giant. Now that the bible is proven to be not wrong it's a broken clock.
Here is a simple principle for you. If you do not want to believe in God then simply don't. Stand on your own authority and simply say I do not want to belive in God and it is my choice that I don't. And Just leave it at that. You don't need a reason. Reasons are the beginning of a defense. If there is no God what is their to defend?
That might have been viable, if it were not for you assholes' propensity for pushing for your superstitions' influence in our lives and our secular laws and the lives of our children, and your constant attempts to infect us and our children with your disease of delusion.

I can surround or encompass you in a rectangle, or a trapezoid, but nice try with the salvage job. If you'd like to blather on about encompassing that's fine, but we'll just have to strike it from the "hey did you know that the bible knew -insert bullshit claim here- before scientists did" list. I'm happy either way we go with it.

Well, it does certainly seem as though the Bible is referring to a flat circle. I am not 100% convinced and I do additionally think that Drich has something to offer to this conversation, but at the same time I don't see too much evidence for the spherical Earth suggestion in the Bible.
I think as it stands at the moment it does seem to be referring to a flat circle. Would be good to delve further though.
And man we're not even onto the next points yet though lol

Well, in an effort to keep the ball rolling, on your next point. Washing your hands. How, exactly, is that a "scientific accuracy"? What is scientifically accurate in the statement "wash your hands"?

Nice straw man. Typical of you x-tards to try to cast our pushing back against your superstitious bullshit as if it was pushing our beliefs (we have none) on you. But nice job of admitting that your pushing your shit on us is a Bad Thing.
