Worst Arguments For Christianity
January 20, 2015 at 4:14 pm
What the arguments you personally think are the worst arguments for Christianity?
I'm get the ball rolling.
I don't care much for any argument from best explanation because apologists never ever meet basic criteria for an explanation. By this I mean they'll yell god is the best explanation for blah blah but never give a transparent account of what god did or what their explanation actually is. They zoom past before anyone can question the explanation and then shift burden of proof.
I hate hate HATE the argument from the internal witness of the holy spirit/anything reformed epistemology related.

Hard to beat.
But how about the reverse:
If there's no God, I'll never see my loved ones again and there'll be just nothing when I die!
(and therefore God must exist, obviously)
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.

To prove god exists we need a reliable source
The bible is a reliable source because it is holy and sacred, and by definition incorruptible
Therefore god exists and Christianity is right

You can't ultimately disprove god, therefore god

You're only an atheist because you hate god and love sin.

I feel there must be something more.
BTW I feel I ought to weight, look and be able to do what I could at 20. Just sayin.
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god. If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.
