You handled it very good, you came across as calm and your argument was well reasoned.

Arthur,

You did handle that well. You used tact and didn't ridicule either faith, but gave an honest appraisal of the situation and made them aware of the other stakeholders in the exchange.

Well done,
Rhizo

You could have handled it better. Maybe if you would have conceded, admitted you are a Sinner and accepeted Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior. But do not worry, That doesn't necessarily mean that you are a bad person, just a little confused.

LOL.

Primitive Baptist = Some of the best brainwashers around. Thank FSM that my girlfriend got away from that sect at a young age.

Nice one Arther....I've pretty much dedicated my facebook page to debating etc.

Just as someone else stated..you handled it civil and collective.
Through past experiences on such, you will see the Christians that are simply comfortable with what they believe, and will act as calm as you about it. And you will see those that in the beginning may act collective, but turn fucking evil in the end....
Intelligence is the only true moral guide...
