Re: How do I beat an atheist in argument.

GOD=Life you keep referring to porn, rather preoccupied with the subject I fear...

Gabriel, it shocks me to see violence condoned in a Christian forum. That never solves anything.

I also haven’t sworn of this forum, so please get your facts straight sir. I also never stated I was an Atheist, so again I fear you are nothing but a "keyboard warrior"
Excuse the expression but I think it is appropriate in this case.

If you read all the threads on here, you would know that most new judgmental visitors come from the porn site 4chan.

so again I fear you are nothing but a "keyboard warrior"

Pardon? Are you suggesting I should resort to violence? I post messages to God's favorite forum. Certainly, a Christian is still allowed to communicate with other Christians on a Christian forum?

I'm not up to date on the state of Persecution 2.0, but apparently now even Christian forums are no longer safe from atheists...

I fear we have taken off on the wrong foot, something I did not intend.
I will admit my posts have been somewhat inflamatory, for which I appologise.

I can assure you I am not from that site.

We should all be preoccupied with the filthy porn that is destroying America. Why? Do you approve of porn? Should we ignore the problem?

It never ceases to amaze me that people that come to our forums can not tell a joke when they see one.

Why do you capitalize 'atheist?' Do you capitalize 'pedophile?'

Re: How do I beat an atheist in argument.

Recently I have been having several arguments with atheists on the internet. When I have an argument with an atheist in real life, I usually just talk louder than them and tell them that they are going to hell. But there is no way to yell louder on the internet, and there certainly isn’t a function to make my typing louder.

YOU'VE OBVIOUSLY NEVER DISCOVERED THE JOY OF ALLCAPS.
Seriously, try posting Bible verses in bold or in allcaps. Instant knockout. There's just nothing an atheist can come back with when you drop a Bible verse written in allcaps on them.

I do not, that would be stupid. That analogy is also completley over the top.

How so? If anything, it's an understatement. If an ambulance doesn't get there in time, what's the worst that can happen? Someone dies, boo hoo. If you're in an argument with a Christian and you don't repent, what's the worst that can happen? Infinite suffering for eternity. That's loads worse.

Gabriel, it shocks me to see violence condoned in a Christian forum. That never solves anything.

Have you ever read the Bible? It solves lots of problems. Take the "Muslims being alive" problem, for instance. Wham! A little violence can solve that one in a jiffy.

It's funny because that's the only argument a theist ever uses.

Tell me this - If God is willing to prevent evil, but is not able to
Then He is not omnipotent.

If He is able, but not willing
Then He is malevolent.

If He is both able and willing
Then whence cometh evil?

If He is neither able nor willing
Then why call Him God?

Also, explain platypi.

Boring variation of "Can God create a stone that he cannot lift""

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Omnipotence_paradox

http://answers.org/apologetics/omnipotence.html

"The Christians in that newsgroup answered the objection very well. To speak of an almighty God creating an object that He cannot lift is to posit a logically contradictory state of affairs. It is a variation on the old question, "What happens when an immovable object (the stone) meets an irresistible force (God)?" The answer is that both an irresistible force and an immovable object cannot exist together in the same universe without creating a logical contradiction. If reason is valid then to speak of the two in the same sentence is to speak nonsense. Similarly, it is nonsense to speak of God creating a stone that he cannot lift."

It has already been discussed and debunked in the previous century...

I lol'd at "without creating a logical contradiction". That's another way of saying "I don't know". Also "If reason is valid then to speak of the two in the same sentence is to speak nonsense" makes no sense whatsoever.

It is irrelevant how you feel in the process of displaying complete ignorance of how Christians view their God.

You are the one going to a Christian forum trying to convince them they should change their religion. We do not go to your forum. Thus you want something from us. Perhaps something is missing in your life? Or should I say Someone?

I have everyone I need in my life, thanks, my best friend is amazing and so is my girlfriend and they're all I need <3

I'm very happy thank you, I just find this entire forum hilarious. I thought this was a forum for discussion of religion? Not one of judgement and hatred. It says in the forum about joining that freedom of speech is welcome here, say what you mean, but yet everytime I see someone voicing an opinion, looking for help no less, they get banned or flamed. Something else that opening document frowns upon.

Re: How do I beat an atheist in argument.

Not one of judgement (sic) and hatred.

So you are complaining about people judging others in the exact same post where you are judging an entire community? That's self-referential.

Yes, but God says that He is benevolent and omnipotent. So you can't both be right. Now, who's more likely to have made a mistake in their argument - God, who's omnipotent, or you, some unsaved fool? God's a lot smarter than you, so I'll take His word over yours.

Also, explain platypi.

God made them. That was easy.

What do you mean? What opening document? Are you talking about this?

This is not a debate forum. The purpose of this site is to praise and glorify the Lord, Jesus Christ. It is a place for Christians to fellowship and worship.

Or maybe you meant this?

Maybe as a child you kept an ant farm. Do you think that the ants understood that you had their best interests at heart?

We are like ants to GOD and can't possibly fully understand HIS WAYS. However, from reading the Bible(KJV), we can understand that GOD uses hardship to test us and separate the goats from the sheep. (Matthew, Chapter 25)

You don't want to be a goat do you?

Re: How do I beat an atheist in argument.

My daughter of 9 years old asked me about evolution. We took her and blindfolded her eyes and stoned her for a while . Now she is "touched" and cant speak to well. Us boys had a fun time I tell you what. And little Annie Mae is doing what Jesus wants her to do , shut up, don't think, and do all her chores that us boys require of her. Its real funny when she slobbers all over her mothers quilts.

Wrong. Read the Bible before you ridicule it.
