Simply say to them:
(1) They don't observe themselves as omniscient.
(2) They want to absolutely believe that God exists. (Impossible, due to (1))
(3) They don't probably believe that God exists.
So, they possess zero degrees of belief in God.
Lack of belief in God, is atheism.
I read this and I'm still a Christian. I know for a fact that God exist, what I don't know is that you're real. You seem to much like 21st Century minus the pseudo he places on Christians, oh and the vile wording in his posts. So are you real or just another personality.

Don't you use PGJs ramblings as an excuse to believe in God!

It's entirely possible to believe something to be true without knowing it to be true, Jordan.

I honestly think he's earnest. Perhaps autistic?

It would be interesting to see the number of theists presented with this looney tactic vs the number of theists convinced by it, correlated with time.
I strongly suspect that the results will look an awful lot like 'nil'.

Yep, still a theist!

C'mon now, that's not nice.
Jordan is actually from jamaica, which is why the way he writes seems extra strange to us. I know That doesn't change the idea he presents, but it does offer an explanation as to why we think he talks funny.

Who do you love more, Ico or PGJ. Surely nice atheists betwix their cheeks, albeit too tight.
Question remains, why convert stuff. People should use the metric system,

Jordan is not a troll. Ico is. So I'll have to go with Ico. With jordan, I honestly just feel bad for him for all the crap he gets here.

To be fair it's GC might as well counter one poe with another.

Me either. But as I said, it's a language thing bc he is jamaican.

A Christian that lacks belief in God?
Hold on - didn't you just get done proving that all religious (xtians included) lack belief in "God"? Isn't that the entire fucking point of this thread?
Could it be that you don't find you convincing either?

Oh, apparently not.
Add cognitive dissonance to your already impressive list of skills.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
