Atheists who become Christians

[dyresand]

Evidence will never come any sane person should note that if any of the bible was true which it is not.
why is it that people who read and look into the bible or go to church for answers it never comes because such answers probably and most likely
do not exist and we only have nature and something we should cherish and take care of.

I suspect Atheists who become Christians see holy beauty in the Bible and attributed it to holy spirit. I think it's possible to get this relative experience and can relate to it as that's what I use to get reading the Quran.

I don't like playing the no true Scotsman fallacy, even when it comes to former atheists. I think there are many true Christians who were once atheists (I don't believe the claims of the likes of Kirk Cameron and his ilk, since he spouts bullshit about what atheists really think and they're obviously not qualified to talk for us).

THeir reasons for believing? I don't know. Personal tragedy? Something they've seen that they can't explain/attribute to nature?

Everyone has different reasons.

Everyone goes through confusing times. Everyone goes through tragedy. Some people embrace friends and family. Some embrace religion.

not what I said at all. I said you exceedingly strong Faith prompted God to send the wind and rains per the parable of the wise and foolish builders, to test your house/faith. As a result your strong faith collapsed and died, because God would not support the broken image you were worshiping. Giving you the oppertunity to rebuild on the Rock outlined in the bible rather than the sand of empty religious doctrine.

So, let me get this straight.My faith was strong but because I don't agree with your interpretation of the bible, which you believe just happens to be the only one, god risked me losing my faith by making me doubt. Again, you have only proved your god is an asshole.

Why do you worship this view of god, Drich? You decided to follow the version of god that is apparently the most cruel among the different Christian versions of god.

Luckily, I followed my doubts

For His Followers is God described as a Father figure, not For Everyone.

I forgot. You are a follower of John Calvin so you don't believe in an omnibenevolent deity.


I looked through the passages that you copied and pasted. They say nothing about god being an enemy to everyone who doesn't believe in him.

Again the problem your having is that everyone has it wrong except you.

The only person that I have said is wrong on this thread is you. So, unless you and I live alone in the universe, I obviously don't think that everyone is wrong but me.

Look at what your assumption was when I approached with with the truth of the bible that conflicted with what you thought was true. Rather than question yourself, you questioned me.

Aren't you a super special snowflake

No. Why would I move my family to a gated community?

to protect your family from those outside those gates.
