Watch the documentary I referred to earlier.

I blame the yanks and their newer interpretations.

Believing in God doesn't make you a Christian.



There is not vast amounts of evidence. They do not honestly believe in Jesus' sacrifice because they cannot properly believe in original sin.



Show me a scientist who has been born again? Again, being born again in Christ is different to simply being a deist.



Most aren't, sadly.

I never suggested anything of the sort. Why don't you address what I actually said regarding your dismissal of the beliefs of thiestic scientists rather than attacking a straw man.



They reject you particular interpretation of christiantity however they still consider themselves christians just as you consider yourself to be a christian.

As an atheist I'm not going to speak for these christians who interpret their religious beliefs however it is arrogant of you to suggest that christians who hold a different interpretation to you are not really christians when they consider themselves to be.

I do however have much more respect for those christians who are willing to evaluate their beliefs in the light of evidence than those whose interpretations of religious doctrine require will ignorance and abandonment of reason such as yourself.



Once again you fail to respond to the point that I actually made. You shifted the goalposts by asking for the poster you were responding to name a "born again" scientist when the point he made was that there are scientists who believe in god a point which you have failed to address despite responding to this point.

Either you lack basic reading comprehension skills or you are being deliberately disengenous with your response to Kosh's point regarding theistic scientists.

Hell's teeth: are we back to Kirkstaller grandstanding arrogantly about what a perfect little Christian he is and how everyone else isn't?

At least he's probably putting more people off religion than recruiting them.

This Satan, is he the one who undid all of your god's work by introducing Lust and Virus's and other stuff that your god had never thought about during those seven days of hard graft ?

Again, not a straw man. I'm just saying that believing in God does not make you a Christian.



God does not consider them to be Christian. They think they know better than God, they deny his creation and they deny original sin. They do not by any definition come close to being Christian. NonAs an atheist I'm not going to speak for these christians who interpret their religious beliefs however it is arrogant of you to suggest that christians who hold a different interpretation to you are not really christians when they consider themselves to be.

The Bible is clear that he encouraged us to sin, yes. He continues unto this day.

So he is the one who blind-sided your god within a few days of him creating the world and everything in it, apart from Lust, virus's and the Giants Causeway ?

Excellent, he sounds like he is the man, certainly a lot more clever than your god - where do I go to worship this Satan god then, the Catholic church ?

Please forgive my ignorance, these churches don't all follow the same god do they ?

I do believe that he has pervaded the RC church, yes. That would be a good place to start.



No, a lot of Christian sects say they worship the same God. Sadly, most have been deceived by Satan.

Why don't you worship this Satan god then, he seems to be much smarter than the God bloke you follow, in fact, with all due respect, it sounds like he's tied your God up in knots and left him for dead, how many days does the bible say it took Satan to undo all of your Gods good work ?

I'll ask around at our local RC church tomorrow, are all of their priests still kiddie-fiddlers, was it your God that told them to do that as well ?

Not that I'm a regular defender of RC clergy, but you're much more likely to be 'kiddie-felt' by non-religious, secular teachers than a priest of any denomination.

Satan didn't outsmart God, he just capitalised upon God's gift of Free Will.

Nope, you told us that he invented virus's, tiny little specks of life so small that you can't see them and yet each one is far, far smarter than any human that your god ever made and every time your god guides a man towards finding a "fix" for one of these Satan virus's, then the design that Satan made just goes and mutates them again, and back they come for another fight, just like the Zulus at Rorkes Drift.

I'll give you Kudos for the Rourke's Drift citation. However, it doesn't mean that Satan is smarter than God. Sin (and Satan's real power) only entered the world [iafter[/i the creation.

We are slaves to sin and cannot resolve every problem we face, including disease. All we can do is place our faith in Jesus.

Religion is a terrifying thing. It always amazes me how brainwashed some people are. It's easy to see how people can be convinced to do terrible acts in the name of religion
