What type of Bible did you receive? What kind of "proof" are you looking for?

You're the most retarded kind of atheist. You don't even understand what others believe and you're trying to argue against it.

When they give their explanation you ask why a fictional character in your story gave false information about religion.

Then why did the Priest say that if you still go to hell anyways?




Faith is linked with a lack of proof. If there were true and legitimate proof it wouldn't be faith. You don't have faith that you're sitting in front of a computer.

I don't see anything relevant to my post in there. When I call him retarded I'm speaking specifically of how slowly he learns the topic hes trying to argue against.

You were/are not a Christian. How can you consider yourself a Christian without any knowledge of the faith? The first time you read a Bible and now you are questioning your faith? That doesn't make any sense. Simply believe that there is a God does not make you a Christian. If you don't believe the eye witness testimony recorded in the Bible of Jesus' miracles, then I don't think you believe in Jesus to begin with.

I'm not trying to discourage you or sound mean, but that's my view on things. You say the Bible seems watered down, how? Give an example.

There is more proof of Jesus, his claims, and the miracles he performed, than any other figure in history. Biblical and non-Biblical alike. If Jesus didn't perform the miracles, why did he have merit among the Jews who were told not to believe in Him? If he didn't perform miracles why did the Roman's want him killed? If he didn't claim to be the Son of God then why would any of it matter?

It's quite clear, to me, that Jesus claimed to be the Son of God, performed miracles that backed up this claim, and gained a huge following because of it. This leads to a few questions for the skeptic, if Jesus were not the Son of God then why did he claim to be? Was he a liar and if so why did he die for a lie and not confess? Was he insane and if so why did he pose such a threat to the Jewish authority figures and Rome as a whole? If Jesus claimed to be the Son of God and couldn't perform miracles, how did he gain such a following? Did he trick everyone and if he did then that would imply that he is a liar, which brings the above questions.
