I was wondering when the other shoe would drop...ladies and gentlemen, we have an atheist in our midst. No self-respecting Christian would quote from talkorigins. That you are now doing so only reinforces that you place your faith in mankind, not God. EVERYTHING at TO contradicts God's Word.
You sir are no Christian because, if you were, you'd possess the discernment of the Holy Spirit that would tell you TO is NOT of God, but of the world. You would also know that, when it comes to disagreement betwixt man and God, God wins.

Christianity in a nutshell! Don't have faith in yourself and others, that's Satanic! To be a christian, you have to only believe in GOD! Anything else means you're thinking for yourself, and that's Satanic too! :P
@MK
Why do so many who claim to be Christian seem intent on winning the pissing contest over "I'm a Christian and You're Not!"
"I was wondering when the other shoe would drop...ladies and gentlemen, we have an atheist in our midst."Oh, no! Hide the women, pull the children off the street, run for the hills. That nasty atheist might bring up ideas that might make us think. Quick, stuff your ears with these Bible pages. EEEEEEK!

Oh, c'mon, Dumdum, even the "word of God" contradicts the "word of God."
As faith is belief in something in the absence of evidence, I do not have faith in ANYTHING. I accept as true those assertions which seem to be supported by the best evidence.
"You sir are no Christian because, if you were, you'd possess the discernment of the Holy Spirit that would tell you TO is NOT of God, but of the world."
I do not wish to possess the "discernment of the Holy Spirit." it seems to lead people into belief in imaginary friends and other fictions.
"You would also know that, when it comes to disagreement betwixt man and God, God wins."
Since you can't prove or even show evidence for the existence of "God" nor show that the Bible is "God's word," how can you show that "God" wins?
Discernment of the Holy Spirit =
Napoleon, that "talents" parable does not refer to what we currently mean by the word, but to an ancient unit of currency called a talent (like a mark, dollar, or drachma). It's a common mistake; a music teacher of mine in grade school used to tell that tale as a reminder that we should all develop our talents, not realizing that the story was merely about investing money for one's master (or for oneself) wisely.
whitewater55 said it all.
"Ladies and gentlemen, straight from the jungles of deepest, darkest, godless Africa comes the most vile and disgusting animal on earth, the sub-human, saviour-denying, ATHEIST!"
Yo Napoleon, my childhood pastor knew about talents being a form of money, and the parable being about money investment. Funny thing is he would usually preach about developing your sin(g)ing voice and entering the church choir.
"ladies and gentlemen, we have an atheist in our midst."
I get a mental image of Donald Sutherland doin his point-and-screech thing from Invasion of the Body Snatchers.
OK, you Christians, it's time for you all to get together and agree upon what Christians believe. No, you've all gotta agree with each other, on all points of dogma. THEN one of you can speak for christianity ...but as it is, nope, not a chance.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
