How to Prove Your Own Position without Trying Very Hard
July 12, 2015 at 4:36 pm
1. Start a thread by inserting an absurd quote from one individual from the Other Side. Linking to a news item from an obscure website also works.
2. Make broad sweeping generalizations about EVERYONE on the Other Side based on the single example cited in Step 1.
3. Express outrage, disbelief or both at the beliefs and actions of the Other Side cited in Step 1.
4. Use foul-language to show that you're all grown up now and that YOU'RE REALLY SERIOUS about not liking the Other Side cited in Step 1.
5. Follow up with obligatory YouTube videos and/or memes mocking the Other Side.
6. Yuck it up with anyone from Your Side who also posts mocking the Other Side using steps 2, 3, 4 or 5.
7. Congratulate yourself and others for really having given the Other Side what for.
8. Thank God that you are not on the Other Side. Oh, wait...
Repeat Steps 1-7 daily to avoid actually thinking about what the Other Side is saying. (And joining them.)

Or post your claims somewhere among those who already believe it.

Or you might try coming up with evidence Randy instead of repeating Ad nauseam the same silly shit from your Heavenly Horseshit as if trying to convince yourself.
But, I've learned to expect nothing more from jesus freaks.

Of course not. You try really hard and fail to prove anything.
Which is why I'm sure you understand, that any advice - be it sarcastic or otherwise - on successful debating, coming from you, will be met with some skepticism here.

I can't speak for anyone else but I am not trying to prove anything to you or other Christians. It is enjoyable to me to debate and interact with the members of this forum.
In a way, this forum should be freeing for you, Randy. You don't have to look for the hidden message in what members write here. They aren't going to try to trick you or be dishonest to win you to atheism. Wouldn't you rather someone curse you then to be nice just so that they might have influence when you are at your emotional lowest and convert you to atheism?

If you want to prove that god exists first you need to prove that magic in one form or another is real.
