Christianity Is The BEST Religion....

You are more impressed with appeals to authority than am I.  Once again you pick one person with no relevant expertise with an odd ball opinion and you wave that cherry proudly like it was the gold standard.  It isn't.

I didn't realize there was a field of expertise concerning life after death...

So how may people are required in order to draw your attention?  

So what you're saying is that just like a car or light bulb, we can bring the human body back to life if supplied with energy?

That your best shot?  Swing and a miss.  Neither was I saying that like those things life too is an inanimate object.  No the analogy is about mistaking what is necessary to sustain something with the thing itself.  Life requires/uses energy but is not itself energy.

If life "uses" energy as you claim (you compared it to a light bulb and automobile) then all you have to do to bring a dead body back to life is supply energy, correct? The organs of a dead body clearly work when transplanted to a live one, so why not just supply 'energy' to the body as a whole and bring it back to life since that all it lacks?

In case you forgot, I issued a challenge to anyone to show where science debunked the bible, not one of you could do it, so saying I dismiss science where It contradicts my beliefs is just an outright lie.

That is not even slightly responsive to what I said.  I'm not interested in what debates you think you've won in the past.  If you have nothing to say concerning your selective regard for science just say so.

As I explained I'm not selective in regards to science, It's my position that there is no science that debunks the bible, if you think there is then provide it and we'll see if i'm being selective or not.

Are you saying that would be impossible?

More words would just be wasted on you.

I'll ask: how would one supply energy to a dead body?

Hehe

But, seriously, while the layperson often thinks that defibrillation jump starts a person's heart, in actuality it's used when the heart is suffering from a dysrhythmia.  Specifically, it's used to force the heart to get its electrical pulses firing in a regular rhythm again.  It's useless if the heart has actually stopped.

CPR itself is more about keeping blood flowing to the brain than anything else.  And even with chest compression, there's no guarantee that a viable defibrillation rhythm will occur.

And, really, all of this is dancing around one important fact: people die for a reason.  Whether it's trauma, disease, or age-related organ failure, dead bodies are dead because they can no longer sustain life.  There's a reason why the vast majority of people who need CPR (which is an infusion of kinetic energy (chest compression) and often electricity (defibrillation)) still die (~37% survival rate in the best circumstances (trained professional, shockable heart rhythm, supplementary equipment, witness to ensure correctness, etc.) shortly after measures are taken, even if they're able to achieve spontaneous circulation again.

It should also be noted that CPR isn't performed on the dead, but the unresponsive.

So, yeah... how does one supply a dead body energy, and how does that revive it?

Apparently it doesn't. Which could be interesting.

Christianity is the best religion because you'll have a god that you can trust to lead you to the light, a god that will help you through dark times.

Why do atheists have aversion to the fact that there is an afterlife and that there is a god?

Does any atheists care to respond?

"Fact"?
