That sounds like magic, should I be surprised that the only person claiming that this is even on the table worships djinn?

I'm confused; are we arguing for or against humans being made of atoms, or Mars being so made? And are we seriously basing our conclusion on the fact that the atoms making up either are not making up the other?
Of course, the opther side of the coin would read something along the lines of: if Jinn are made up of atoms that are impossible to detect, does that mean that everything that is impossible to detect is a Jinn? I realise there's an oxymoron lurking in there somewhere. Perhaps the whole Jinn argument needs a tonic.
I smell a sitcom here...
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.'

Congratulations on spotting the hidden joke

The words "sloe jinn" spring to mind, but that one only works if you say it out loud.

They'd find a new people to evangelize to...
But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, purifies us from all sin.
