Nope. Your mind and heart are engulfed in the bondage of constant darkness, and yet you think you are walking in the day, despite the Scriptural warning: "While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he brought in bondage." (2 Peter 2:19)

Has absolutely no relevance whatsoever. Providing biblical to assert your opinion to an atheist would be the same as me asserting my counter argument using Harry Potter, they are both fictional books, which equally lack evidence and to which neither can be disproved.
I'm just far supperior in my argument to do it.

Friend, pompous stutters are far from superior. Actually, they are to be ridiculed and mocked. I'd do it but you appear to need no assistance.

Re: What is it like to be an atheist?

But before you said that your morals came from instruction, at school, from your parents.

Now when you're on about marrying pigs you have some other criterion? If your parents did not teach you which species were suitable partners and which were not, where does that "moral" come from. What about marrying a dalmation?

Before a suitable companion animal was found for Adam numerous species were presented for his consideration:

GENESIS 2
18 And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.
19 And out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air; and brought them unto Adam to see what he would call them: and whatsoever Adam called every living creature, that was the name thereof.
20b ..but for Adam there was not found an help meet for him.
KJV.. MORE HERE

If you've followed the link by now you will see just why you are polluted, how all humanity became polluted and how Jesus, and only Jesus, can set you free. Spaniardesses notwithstanding.

I get it. It is hard for you to understand. You have to look in your book and see what you can and can't do. I have all that in my brain. Moral and common sense.

I get it. It is hard for you to understand. You have to look in your book and see what you can and can't do. I have all that in my brain. Moral and common sense.

The Bible is clear that whatever you call "moral" is in fact filth.

ISAIAH 64
6 But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.
7 And there is none that calleth upon thy name, that stirreth up himself to take hold of thee: for thou hast hid thy face from us, and hast consumed us, because of our iniquities.
KJV. more here

God teaches us that there is a reason why (for those referred to in the passage, above) and the reason is because they do not follow God. You do not follow God. Your "morals" therefore come into the filth category.

All morals come from God; when He hides His face (as He has done from you) and consumes (as He consumes you) it is because of iniquity (your iniquities). So how come if you have some sort of internalised moral compass God is hiding His face from you because of your iniquities?

The Bible explains this exact point:

I CORINTHIANS 1
23 ..we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness;
24 But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.
25 Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.
KJV

Just as the Greeks with their Pythagorases and their Aristarchuses and their Archimedes thought they were "on top of things scientifically" yet collapsed into idolatry and yes, there were temple prostitutes if you can imagine anything worse than having to lie around all day drinking wine and probably consuming toadstools and refusing no-one male or female as some sort of "sacred duty" in accordance with one's "inner morality" obviously this is mot morality at all no wonder you're obsessed with quadrupeds.

Common sense (whatever you think that is) was another fancy of the Greeks. The Jews fancied themselves in that respect too and were also blasted. That is not an opinion. God tells us so. Therefore we know that what the Greeks and the Jews were doing was folly. Modern "scientists" mimic the Greeks and God has turned away from them now, too. Witness the new atheist movement: many of them are "scientists" and although no further evidence is needed, God provides more. Here:

PSALM 53
1 The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. Corrupt are they, and have done abominable iniquity: there is none that doeth good.
2 God looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, that did seek God.
3 Every one of them is gone back: they are altogether become filthy; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
4a Have the workers of iniquity no knowledge?
KJV

So the matter is settled. You have no knowledge. The question remains however .What .Are .You .Going .To .Do .About .It ? ?

And yet you are still unable to assert an argument for Gods existence, or disprove the existence, of an equally mythical creature as Hagrid,

If anything, the fact that more Harry Potter books have been written, surely leads to the conclusion it is more viable, seeing as neither have empirical evidence supporting their existence

You a simpleton?

Wrong.
The Harry Potter books do purport to be real, within the realms of the novel and story itself.
What you mean is that the readers don't purport it's truth. And they don't because the notion of it's actual existence is ridiculous, therefore anybody believing the story to be true, would be, well, you'd have to agree, a bit if an idiot.

And by asserting the same logic to the Bible............???
Well, you see my point

You won't find the Harry Potter books in the non-fiction section of your local library or bookstore. You won't find them in the biography section. They'll be in the fantasy section, where they belong. If you visit my local Christian bookstore, however, you won't find the Bible under fiction with the likes of Pilgrim's Progress but under non-fiction.

It's amazing how those who despise the Bible also tend to be on the slow side.

Harry Potter can't even touch the Bible. The Bible is the certified and declared™ Word of God (Joshua 1:8-9; Psalm 119:105, 97; 2 Peter 1:19-21; 2 Timothy 3:16-17), many centuries old, and written by many different authors over a vast amount of time.

It is said that if the Bible could have been written by man, then it wouldn't have, but if it would have, then it couldn't have. It contains many truths that men just wouldn't include had it been made up, such as talking snakes/donkeys (Gen 3; Numbers 22), floating axeheads (2 Kings 6:1-7), the sun standing still (Joshua 10:13), and pi equaling 3 (I Kings 7:23)

But God's ways are higher, and thus, God's Book is still influencing the entire world while loud-mouthed atheists are putting out treatise after treatise and making no difference. I pity all atheists. Go ahead and mock. You will fail as always.
