FAF, I believe the question was- Christians, Please explain the Exodus...
You react with________________ at any explanation I offer.
DO not ever look at evidence which contradicts established viewpoints.
They why ask Christians anything?

One that insults have no affect upon is one who sees no insults. Offense is its own enemy.

Stimbo if you truely belief that I am a dog you can believe it, I am not opposed to your faith at all, I am quite a short person, can I get a step ladder? If I am allowed this can you carry it, because apparently I have no thumbs.

Exactly.

Please, Proff, bring that evidence......and -then- you can bitch and moan about evidence, and how it's being handled.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

My point is, what happens when faith and belief are not justified because they conflict with reality? Especially when those beliefs inform actions and more especially against other people? Do you have a problem with that?

If I really must hammer my point home, I'm making a comparison with your dogmatic belief in the inerrancy of your bible.
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.'

Prof, I don't know why I'm bothering because I'm sure you've been told this a hundred times, but an explanation actually has to be based on evidence, not a pre-drawn belief. You can't hope to use "arkdiscovery" as a source of information for an explanation because the entire edifice of its organization presupposes Biblical truth, something that has to be proven, not presupposed. That's why scientific peer-reviewed journals are good sources of evidence, because the information there is combed over by other (oftentimes rival) scientists to make sure the information stands up to scrutiny.

So yes, again, fuck off with "arkdiscovery".

I have nothing wrong with other people's beliefs, somrtimes they are annoying, for instance one person in my friend group beliefs you do not need a parachute when using a wingsuit, I disagree. The important thing I think is to be able to turn around and laugh at the situation, just because someones ideas seem illogical it doesn't mean you have to start trying to disprove or insult them over their beliefs.

I hope I haven't or ever will insult someone because hey are an atheist, I would hope you(plural) would do the same and nit insult people of a different belief.
