Helping Christians to lose faith?

RE: Helping Christians to lose faith?
Just skipped through this web site and it looks pretty convincing. I don't know if anyone has had a look yet, but would anyone agree with what has been writtent there?

RE: Helping Christians to lose faith?
That is one long post, so it will take time to read through. But the first one states that this 20-year commission of PhDs and big shots concluded that Jesus "was executed [by the Romans] as a public nuisance, not for claiming to be the Son of God." Were the Romans really that uptight? Damn, and people think the moderators here are tough...
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."

I took time to skim it. There's a lot of good stuff in there, some that I recognize from the Usenet era (alt.atheism) in the early to mid 1990s.
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.

Well, it is all down to interpretation and they did a very good job it seems. I wouldn't mind asking our theists their opinion on the website.
