MysticKnight, I missed your posts about why God would send a book. Could you send a link that thread for the benefit of myself and others?

According to Drich, in order to find the Christian god, we must ask, seek, and knock, but Godschild claims to have been called.

Who's right?

If they are are not silent then they are posting things such as: "God called me, the other Gods didn't." It is pretty pathetic.

Oh wait! I forgot! We also have MysticNight on here that is eager to use presuppositions to advance his silly argument. His excuses for these presuppositions are: "I already covered them," or: "I will cover them."

We also have a group of atheists that easily tear down any defense Mystic has put up, however his only responses are: "I already explained that," or, "I will explain that."

Since this is my first real thread, I really had hope for the theists on here to surprise me, however they did quite the opposite. I no longer have hope for any theist on here to have any real arguments, points, or legitament thoughts that haven't been picked apart to shreds by atheists. Maybe I will give them a second chance in the future, maybe not!

They are pretty much the same warmed-over shit you've heard everywhere else.

Lucky how you managed to believe the real truth with all that silly stuff around.[/sarcasm]

What are your rational reasons for believing in Christianity? I've discussed mine with Islam. I don't know of yours. If you have none, then it probably is due largely to culture.

Christianity is based solely on the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Subsequent appearances such as those to Swedenborg only confirm that which has already been established. Otherwise, I would probably be a neo-Platonic Pagan.

There is no way that the resurrection was a real thing, does that worry you?

The resurrection is a historical fact. That should worry you.

Is this is some new usage of the term "fact" that I am unaware of?

Both. Those who are called will necessarily ask, seek, and knock.
