10 Christian Delusions equals 10 Atheist Lies

Here some nut case tries to conjure a list of "Ten Christian Delusions". When you look at them, you can see the absolute lack of intellectual honesty.

Independent historical facts are all in agreement with the Biblical record. To say otherwise is just to make stuff up.

I think this cute little trick will backfire on atheists. The casual reader will see that Christians are on top of Biblical scholarship and atheists are just out to lunch.

Re: 10 Christian Delusions equals 10 Atheist Lies

I'll take a crack at them.

10) If you truly believed in God with all of your heart and all your mind and all your soul how is it that you "lost your faith"? Are these people so skeptical that they don't believe the sun is going to rise every day? No, they never truly believed because if you fully 100% believe in God there is nothing that can shake your faith.

2nd Thessalonians 2:11-13 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness. But we are bound to give thanks alway to God for you, brethren beloved of the Lord, because God hath from the beginning chosen you to salvation
through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth:

9) Lets look at all of the other religions that he mentions.
Scientology - Started by a second rate science fiction writer who hung out with Alaster Crowley a man who believed he was the antichrist himself.
Mormonism - Joseph Smith had been arrested as a con man on more than one occasion. But for argument, lets just say that he was visited by an angle, it was an angle that was never mentioned in the Bible and as we all know Satan himself can appear as an angel of light.
2 Corinthians 11:14 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.
Islam - Again, another angel appeared to Mohommod. See above.
Orthodox Judaism - Well they're probably the closest, now if they had accepted Jesus, perhaps they could of got in.
Voodoo - is a bastardized blend of catholicism and African pagan practices, how could this be a true religion?

8) Are they really saying that Paul was a god here? Really? Where did Paul ever say he was a god?

7) Okay this is just pure mocking of Jesus.

6) Paul was not the only apostle that saw Jesus. Sheesh, pick up a Bible guys.

Luke 24:36-43 And as they thus spake, Jesus himself stood in the midst of them, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you.But they were terrified and affrighted, and supposed that they had seen a spirit.And he said unto them, Why are ye troubled? and why do thoughts arise in your hearts? Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have.And when he had thus spoken, he shewed them his hands and his feet.And while they yet believed not for joy, and wondered, he said unto them, Have ye here any meat?And they gave him a piece of a broiled fish, and of an honeycomb.And he took it, and did eat before them.

5) Is the guy insulted that his father is as dumb as a bag of rocks?

4) WHAAAA!!!!!! LIFES NOT FAIR!!!!!!! WHAAAA!!!!!! GOD'S A MEANIE!!!!!!!

3) This is just a carry on of #4 so really doesn't deserve a number itself. But again, us mortals are supposed to understand the mind of God.

2) This is opinion not an argument. I've seen Gods wonderful work in my life, yet they argue that this doesn't count. But the fact that he doesn't give unbelievers their pony is proof he doesn't exist?

1) I have no idea what he's talking about here. The Bible is a fairy tale but the Bible is historical fact? Well if you can't dazzle them with brilliance, baffle them with ........

There, now if a mere woman can do this to their arguments, imagine what one of our learned Pastors could do to that list. Anyone who believes that drivel is weak minded to begin with.
