I often asked why was it necessary for Jesus to be crucified? How were men saved? The answer invariably was, you are saved from God's wrath. To which just opens a string of question begging.

Let us give thanks and the proferring of gifts to one another that Jesus did use a metaphor that is entirely absurd, that is devoid of noticeable meaning for if he had made it more rational then it wouldn't be as easy to ridicule re-educate the underdeveloped.

Welcome to our personal attempt to disrupt the rings of circular logic being solicited within this little community. I too have been annoyed by the very same perpetuated non-sense myself lately. I even started a thread about it.

Thanks for the welcome.

That can happen when you only read what you want to read.

You expect us to go to science to disprove what you believe about evolution, are we asking anything differently than you are, NO we are not. Many atheist have said to me in the last few days they read and study scripture, if that is so then prove it in conversations you have with Christians.

Which came first: Adam or animals?
Adam or trees?
Adam or Eve?

Also, the authors of Noah's Ark plagiarized the story from the Epic of Gilgamesh.

The bible is not evidence of god. The Holy Bible is a geo-centric book written by people who claimed to have spoken to god. They ancient writers knew nothing about the process of creation, and they believed the world was flat.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.

Exactly what argument does he have, really only a clown would bring up such drivel.

I haven't seen any question from you, I did see your rant about Christians, which was shot down quite well by Drich.

So, you've finally come up with proof that your God exists and that his claim is incorrect? I've only been asking for a year and still, not a single one of you who 'knows' he exists can demonstrate that you actually do know it.

Let's see the proof, godskiddo.

Well then, it shouldn't be hard for you to crush him.

Anytime...
