@zmanjohn00 I don't have a talmud. I do have a bible, however; the first sets of books being the law, the prophets and the writings of course are filled with messiahs. Eli, Samuel, Joshua, Moses, Rurh, Noah, Samson, Cyrus and Elijah to name a few. But in these books there is no mention of the mo...

That's what it says in the bible, anyway.

It's about good communication. It is easy to have a dialogue with someone who believes in "evil' by using the term than to go into and be sidetracked by explaining that there are things that are harmful to some and beneficial to others, depending on their perspective.

To be more correct in term...

@TheresaLockwood " my point is is they were truely Christian, they wouldn't be an ex-christian"

Surely you just said that a conversion away from Christianity means that they were never sincere in the belief to begin with. You've identified conversion as a lack of sincerity.

You are right. Peop...

I think the problem atheists have with Christians is not the belief but the accompanying claim that there is evidence for the belief.

Proof means that the claim is justified. When we say that the belief is justified, that is extended to acts or decisions that we may make based on the belief. Cl...

@Christistruth1 What is asinine? I asked a question.

Care to answer?

@janiesmythie Thanks to you for your words. I'll end simply by reaffirming that I disagree.

@truthsourcenet Luke 9:50

John stopped a man from casting out devils because "he follow not with us."

What did Jesus say? "And Jesus said unto him, Forbid not: for he that is not against us is for us"

This competition among churches, calling each other "of Satan" will be the end of Christianity.

Glenn Beck wannabe. Sensationalism and bullshit. I'd rather see a real argument with a solid claim and sound evidence.

I'm not an atheist, but I AM confused.

These are all reasons to NOT believe the Ark story.

DAD: Hannah, why are you so overly dramatic?

HANNAH: I learned it from watching you, dad! I learned it from watching you!

@oregonatheist Sorry to hear that.

There are some good men who by cultural lottery happen to be in that system. At one time I was just about as anti-catholic as I assume you are, but to call all priests pedophiles and bullshit artists is like calling all atheists "immoral." It's a sweeping gener...

@dbaig187 Why? What this implies is that the Zoroastrian scriptures are true.

If any Muslim believes Mohammad is verified by these scriptures, then he believes they are true and then should convert to Zoroastrianism since he believes the scripture is true.

Or this is just another case of cherr...

@rdanielson0607 You need to make up your mind.

@WearTheWhiteRobe I'll agree with that.

But in the absence of evidence, skepticism is the appropriate position, not acceptance, as I've shown. Otherwise, you have to accept all things without evidence.

NTM, that as time goes on and the amount of evidence (zero) remains constant, the probability...

If atheism = no belief in gods, then anything external to gods, including man-made religion, is up for grabs.

Supplanting Christians who believe in the literal Christ story with Atheists and Agnostics that practice only the forms of the religion may be the next step to a secular world. Isn't thi...

@computerpurple That's quite a strawman you've made.

@nyomythus

Forbid not. For he that is not against us is on our part.

@strangeyoungman My bad. But to answer your question, I'd say the two are not comparable.

One has no evidence to prove or disprove, while the other can be empirically shown in a number of ways to be wrong. Beyond that, once prophets get involved and miraculous claims, they begin to converge, how...

You have some history wrong. Constantine had 50 bibles printed privately and handed down from the bishop of Constantinople to the emerging churches. The Council of Nicea had nothing to do with it. You may be thinking of the Council of Rome in 382 where they basically re-affirmed the canon as crea...
