A question on Atheism

[Achilles]

I'll wait for Jae to reply, but I really would like to chase up this belief that the only true Christians are those who would slaughter Harry Potter fans because they oppose witchcraft and the like.

It would probably be best to pick this back up in the Senate where we left it, but I will say this:

 

If we are mortal and cannot comprehend the will of God, then how come we can read His book and decide which part to take seriously and which to blow off? It defies reason. It's all or nothing. Either the Bible is the inerrant word of God to be taken literally or it is not. If it is the former, then you true believers need to catch up on your killing. If it's the latter, then who are we fooling by pretending that God exists? The only evidence that we have for God or Jesus comes from the Bible, therefore it isn't a reliable source we're wasting our time.

On-topic: People don't like Bush for a lot of other reasons besides his religion. If one were to attack him, I could think of a lot of better ways to do it than attacking his Christianity.

 

Slightly off-topic: Atheists can not believe in what they want to and Christians can believe in what they want to. Fact of the matter is, no one here was around during the time of the creation of the universe or the time of Jesus. So everything to this point is all based on what you believe. Christians believe in the teachings of the Bible, which teaches that the word of God is infallible. Atheists believe in empirical and scientific evidence, which they think to be infallible. Let's just leave it at that.

 

General administration notice: I'm all for spirited discussion here, but let me make something crystal clear. This is not the Senate. Kavar's Corner operates under different rules. And if the moderators here deem something flame-y or rude, they will snip it, whether it was made with that intent or not. Cry censorship all you want; you read the rules when you started posting here. The staff reserves the right to edit or delete any post made here. It is a right we make very, very little use of, but also one which we do not hesitate to exercise should we deem it necessary.

 

This forum was opened to foster friendly discussion and friendly discussion only. If it's not friendly, it's not for Kavar's Corner. End of story.
