I will debate any atheist on here

[unfogged]

For anybody who missed it, and who has a strong stomach, this guy has been posting over in another thread starting here.

It is all argument from personal incredulity and god of the gaps.

COTW, can you please clarify a few things?
Are you a presuppositionalist?
Are you a young-earth creationist?
Do you believe in Noah's flood, the tower of babel, the exodus, and other such OT events?
What do you think constitutes sufficient evidence to accept that Jesus was resurrected?

You want to know why its the number one religion? because in addition to mass murder of anyone who disagreed with them against FAR more peaceful people, they took what was already familiar to everyone else and plagiarized it. They have been plagiarizing things since the beginning. Christianity is the copycat religion.

What life force? What is a life force? Can you demonstrate that such a force exists?

Just a further demonstration that he has no clue what he's talking about. No Biologist or life science person talks about a "life force".

Didn't someone a few hundred years ago try to prove scientifically the "life force" or "soul" had weight.

Seemed to me he weighed people just before they died and again just after and there was no difference.

The Bible states that man is without excuse for not believing in God, even saying that only a FOOL says in his heart, "there is no god". The Bible says (touching on the first point) that the evidence is clear based on nature...you know, an entire universe that BEGAN to exist with intelligent life occupying it..you know, shit like that.

And as far as your second question, if I can save just one person on here, then I've done a good thing.

Third, if you want to hear God's message, just wait..because on judgement day, you will hear him loud and clear.

Where EXACTLY does the Bible say those things. If Jebus said "No one shall come to me UNLESS the Father draw him", I guess that means you think you know more than Jebus, AND he told you not to judge, yet you think you get to do just that. "Began to exist" (as Carroll show d Craig), is a meaningless phrase. You said you've been at this for a while. Apparently you are a rank amateur at this. You're not even mildly good at this. Why is it religionists think they can make up shit and claim that the Bible says whatever they want to say themselves, and CLAIM the Babble says it ?

Well actually Christianity was a pretty backwater cult and probably would have died out, and yeah it had nothing new. They appropriated the post-diaspora "golden rule" stuff from 1st Century Judaism that the Rabbis were preaching, and married it to the Greek mystery cult stuff and Mithraism/Zoroastrianism, and .... viola .... Christianity pops out of the oven. The Roman Emperor was smart enough to get that religion can unify a far-flung empire, and he called a council to make sure they were all preaching the same stuff. He didn't care WHAT they preached, as long as they agreed, and it was uniform.

See, you needn't have worried...there'll always be a fresh supply...

That was probably me. I prayed to Sweet Baby Jesus to bring us an antidote to the Kumbayah plague threatening the forum. My prayers were answered. Praise be to Allah and Peace Be Upon the Gwynnies.

I'm pretty sure it's original.
