Therefor the magic trump card wins again.

Randy, you must realise therefore that it's pretty pointless to try and engage in conversation and honest debate if all you do when confronted with a contradiction is invoke magic, right? If x and y contradict each other, invoke magic and the contradiction resolves.

Not very fun, or very convincing.

Pan - magic is real. But only in their religion. Every other religion's magic is fake or of the devil to trick people into believing something wrong. How convenient.

Yeah well my magic is bigger than your magic so Nee naw.

In all seriousness though this is why nobody takes it seriously. "But if you just imagine there is no problem then guess what? There is no problem! It's like, a revelation!"

Not true at all, my wife is from Haiti where the main religion is voodoo (i've been there also), you'd be a fool to think it's fake. Also did not Pharaohs magicians preform the same miracles Moses did?

Has voodoo been tested by science? What have those tests shown? I would like to see the results and if they are any more probable then chance.

Got it?

Is that supposed to be an argument against the Trinity?

If so, you know the thread where we can discuss it more civilly. [Image: ani_yup.gif]

Just showing  you have no clue what you're talking about biblically.

Pro-tip, if you don't want to hear bible based answers, don't enter a thread discussing bible based events.

Actually, the main religion in Haiti is Christianity (96%), not vodou (and yes, you spelled it wrong).  But I don't think you're sincere when you say vodou is not 'fake'.  You mean to say you believe in Bondye and the loa?  Come on.

Of COURSE you accept the magic that the pharaonic magicians performed - it's from YOUR book.  But do you give the same credence to Zeus' shape-shifting ability or to Thor's hammer?

rob (and rob only, please)-

What have you learned from reading a book written by a Christian?

You expect us to know what science has to say? Fair enough. We read books by good scientists.
You expect us to know what atheists believe? Fair enough. We read Hitchens, Dawkins, Ehrman and others.

Can you name even two books that you have read that were written by Christians to explain basic Christianity? If so, great?

What are the titles of those books?
