Hello I am a Christian and I want to take part in your debates so I can prove you atheists wrong.
I am a true Christian, not that agnostic stuff. I take the bible literally, as it should be taken and everything in the bible is from God and must be true.
I hope you will be kind to me as I will be kind to you.
May God be with you at all times.
If it's in the book, it's real.

Welcome aboard, DoodleBag. I hope you understand that, arguing from a literalist standpoint of the Bible, you wont be getting very far on an atheist forum. Which, really, shows a thing or two about literalism and its faults.
But other than that, good to have you! Hopefully you can grow a little in your understanding and change some of your views while here. Change is good!

Do some research buddy. You cant prove atheists wrong, you cant prove theists wrong its more of a 'matter of opinion' kind of thing...
Its ok to have doubt, just dont let that doubt become the answers.
You dont hate God, you hate the church game.

Sorry mate but we nailed him to a cross ages ago.
Quote:everything in the bible is from God and must be true.
That's called circular reasoning.
Circular reasoning works because circular reasoning works because.....

Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.
Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.
You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.

His invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse.

I'm glad to see we have a lot of teaching to do to you, Doodlebag. But you will have to open your mind, figuratively speaking.

A terrible Roman error. They should of kept his lifeless body hanging there til it was nothing but bones. Try making a martyr out of him when he's nothing but bones left hanging on the cross.
The Romans had the right idea, just the wrong method.
