Why should mata leao, who believes without evidence that a human being can make the sun stand still, have to produce evidence for anything else.

And a third of Christian Europe died from the Black Death while groveling before their Christian god.

I guess they didn't grovel enough.

Sure I do. It means an argument which is suitable to present in a court of law or more broadly speaking, the application of science in examining evidence. A "forensic debate" mut contain forensic evdence. That is, it must contain verifiable facts. In the case of the resuurection, there is no forensic evidence. You don't have exhibit A.

This doesn't make any sense. Penultimate means next to last. What does that have to do with eschatology?

I've been mocking God for about 30 years now, and I've never been happier.

A myth.

Don't forget the hemophiliacs and AIDS babies, they're paying the price for ridiculing and mocking God also.

So did Egypt, Syria, Lebanon, Rome and Greece. Your point is?

Quote:
....the hundreds of brothels destroyed by the tsunami, the brothels and dens of iniquity destroyed by flood in New Orleans, the casinos destroyed in Mississipii, ....
Not to mention the hundreds of churches, synagogues, mosques, schools, Bibles and charitable institutions. Again, your point is?

If you're telling them that AIDS is the wrath of god then be prepared to duck.

If that happened then it was a despicable thing to do.

I thought I could no longer be surprised and then this is posted. This is an insane post. One of several made on this page by mata leao and aChristian. I didn't honestly believe people like this existed. Sure, I have heard stories about it here on II, but to see it in person was quite a shock. I have never encountered such abject ignorance, such close-mindedness, such outright lies from someone who is not supposed to lie.

To mata leao and aChristian, you have shown me a side of humanity I didn't really believed existed. I will bow out of this discussion as my mind is incapable of comprehending willful ignorance to an extent such as this.

These post were truly incredible. I know I am repeating myself but my brain refuses to understand that such ignorance and delusion actually exists in this world.

I've presented a few in the course of this discussion.

What you are missing, and I'm sure that mata leao will point it out to you, that his god is reserving a place in heaven for hemophiliacs and AIDS babies where they will be welcomed into the bosom of Christ, while gays who suffer and die from AIDS will burn for all eternity in the unquencheable flames of mata leao's hell.

Fair's fair, after all.
