    I think this thread has pretty much run it's course, but I'll leave it open for now in case anyone wants to get back to the original topic. Christian / atheist debate is better suited to the relevant megathread.

    I have only belief, Brian.

    If others wish to dissent then that this is their affair and not mine.

    The sheer number of religions in the world and the sheer number of different factions with in those religions (a fractal of a fractal if you will) lends credence to the supposition that none of those religions are based on reality, especially when you take into account that every single one is based around "the revealed word of god/the gods/the world's holiest man [delete as appropriate]". If any single one were true the supreme being behind it would surely by now have either thunderbolted or modified all the other "wrong" religions out of existence.

    God gives each and every person the gift of free will.
    Therefore people are free to choose to believe, not believe, a la carte believe.

    If you think about the number of people who have lived on this planet throughout time, the number of disparate systems of belief is small compared to the number of people who have lived.

    The free will granted by God to every single person includes the freedom to live a virtuous life or to lead a sinful life.
    Jesus Christ gave man the gift of repentance allowing man to restore the Covenant which God seeks with every single human being.

    Cannot believe he was given an infraction. You guys are hilarious.

    Any sort of dangerous rational thought that might get people using their brains is simply censored.

    Mod: It's nice to be able to entertain people. If you have an issue with moderation here, open a thread in Feedback.

    I think this has run it's course. Bible or atheism-related discussion can continue on the relevant megathreads.
