OK, so he can read, isn't it. It's not as if this board has run short of these questions at anytime in the past.
Why are you so offended? Do I have to explain to you my sarcasm?

I'm not the least bit offended. But it bores me to bits whenever the same question crops up regularly. Such as theists asking, where's your morality or atheists coming up with show me proof. Well, I stay out of this. Probably the best solution. It's only a friendly hint. This is one of the most frequently asked questions in the book.

I will try and be short. Nearly everything A Handmade said is a poor example of bad practices of religion Christianity. It's no wonder why people turn away from any religion, there are exponentially more bad examples than good.
Christ is unarguably the most influential person to have ever lived. He made some serious claims to who He was, and in some opinions offered evidence and proof for these claims. If Christ is who he claimed to be, then it would seem prudent to give thought and consideration to what that means for us.
I merely suggest doing a little research and investigating it for yourself. The Holman Christian Standard Bible or HCSB is a good place to start; and it is translated for modern English. It may be of interest to you why this version is better than others that are out there. I will not go into detail as to why, this is better explained by researching it for ones self.
All in all the bible is a deeply intricate and interwoven masterpiece. Many people do not agree with or like what it says but that holds no sway whether it is truthful or not.
You have asked for evidence. It is out there imho, but it will require some legwork on your part.

No offense but I personally think the modern bible is bullshit and a forgery of the ingel

Your posting theist challenge 1.01. Is that more comprehensive?
He's only 12, Abaris! Go easy on him, yeah? He's still light years ahead in critical thinking and maturity than most of our resident theists combined. He'll get himself up to speed in no time!

Light years ahead in the arenas of critical thinking and maturity? Surely you jest. I extend him a lot of leeway because of his age, however, please do not embolden him by stroking his ego. I have spent my life mentoring young people. This young man could benefit from healthy council, sound advice, and positive role models.

I'm more concerned about a definition. Very few theists can get that far without filling my screen with meaningless noise.

What are you basing this on? Perhaps you have seen more of him around here than I?
