You are avoiding the question. I asked first and you (like a typical christian) are trying to change the subject =.= I encountered this move far to often from Christians.

I’m not a Christian. I’m pointing out that your question makes no sense - Christians don’t look for evidence that the Bible is false, just as atheists don’t look for evidence that it is true. It’s like asking a stripper for evidence that taking her clothes off in public is a bad thing.

That's not the point, Brian.

The truth is, as an atheist, I often wonder what would convince any given theist to understand that the bible is false. In the end, of course I realize the futility not of what I was thinking but instead of the theistic mindset. Nothing can convince a theist who wants to continue believing as he does.

Also, theists are fond of stating, What would convince you to believe in god, which is also a valid question.

[no one]

Whatever the belief system, be it the twisted Abrahamic trio, Hinduism, Bahaism, Norse Paganism, or any of the other countless beliefs that no longer exist, the believe first needs to think for themselves rather then rely on the testimony of those that are already indoctrinated.

(Emphasis mine)

Which is why asking the question makes no sense. We already know the answer - ‘Nothing.’

This is not a fair question. To be fair, this should apply to all religions and sub sects of all religions worldwide.


I wouldn't put it like this. 

I would ask, out of 7 billion humans, of countless religions and countless god claims, what makes you, the individual magically thing you got it right, where as all others did not?
