Why does one always represent the whole. Do I say you're extreme materialistic views and intolerance of Christianity is equally as biased and irrational as all atheist's view, NO. If you want to call him a dip-shit that's your perogative, just don't assume that he speaks for the entirey of religion.

And post 256 came BEFORE post 303. Like I said, you suddenly switched what you were saying. But I see you refuse to admit this, even when confronted with your own words.
I rest my case, Your Honor!
Science flies us to the moon and stars. Religion flies us into buildings.
God allowed 200,000 people to die in an earthquake. So what makes you think he cares about YOUR problems?

tackattack my last post regarding the intolerance of Christianity as a whole is not my opinion it is advocated by the bible itself.
Galatians 1:8,9
8.But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.
9.As we said before, so say I now again, if any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.
John 14:6
6.Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
1 John 2:21,22
21.I have not written unto you because ye know not the truth, but because ye know it, and that no lie is of the truth.
22.Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son.
No amount of apologetics will change the meaning of these and many other texts in the N.T. and O.T. that advocate religious intolerance.

If you're going to look at Christianity as a whole, then why not the Bible as a whole. Selective rewards is different than the connotations you heap on with intolerance.

Good luck with that. Whatever floats your boat I guess.

Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.
You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.

Better to rein in hell than be a slave in heaven.

Growing up is a result from learning, gaining knowledge and having responsibility. Something I don't see much of in religion. As far as I am concerned, god does not exist and I can grow up and live a happy life without belief in him. It's gone well so far.

If you still think a dead jew came back to life you need to grow up some more.
