Debate with a Christian

[Miss Meng]

more deflections i see. enough about me. i take ur sensetive little attacks as u conceding u have nothing to bring to the table. when u learn a thing or two about debate come back and we will talk.

If you are expecting anything other than hit and runs from Esquilax, dear, think again.

I'm sorry, when was it that you and I got to talking, so you could know that?

Considering that I took him up on his challenge before you posted this, you're factually wrong anyway, but just so you know, newbie, I've got something of a reputation here as being one who doesn't just hit and run, and who in fact sticks with debates and arguments until they're done. Doggedly.

So please, quit it with the ill informed bitching, hmm?

Watch out Esquilax.

Meanwhile, I've pm'd an admin (rayaan) to set up a debate in the debate forum. Me and discipulus on the topic

"Are the gospels are reliable biographies of the life and teachings of Jesus of Nazareth."

The only rules I would request are

1. No appeals to authority (eg" most scholars agree") without reference
2. After introductory statements, one point at a time please. I hate those overlong rambling posts with 15 points being argued at a time.

Wow, this has to be a first, two christians utilizing the forum debate arena! Good luck to you both, I'll be following with interest

Your reply in my thread, dear. Very hit and run. Other threads with this type of posting do not go unnoticed, either.

That was me trying to be nice, okay? You came in with some very clear misunderstandings about what you were talking about, I had hoped I could prompt you into, perhaps, asking me what I meant, and so on; see, we get a lot of hit and run theists who make precisely the mistakes you did, but then hold to their errors even when corrected. Frankly, I don't want to waste my time with that kind of troll- although you can look through any thread by a "Savedbygracethrufaith," if you want to see the extent to which I stick with arguments with trolls before now- so I figured your response would tell me all I needed to know about you.

Given that you didn't reply, what has told me all I needed to know is the way you made assumptions about my entire posting style based upon one single post in almost five thousand. From a mod: do you really think hit and run antics would have gotten me there?

Me too. But how does one consider himself a Christian if he doesn't consider the Gospels as reliable? lol

That's new.

Yawn. I think I'll let the people who've been here for more than fifteen minutes decide what my reputation is around here, okay?

And as I said, I'll take you on, if you're that desperate to debate. The only one dodging here is you, fool.
