Do you really think when you go before Jesus and tell Him that you did not believe in Him because of some book Dawkins wrote? Or what you read on the internet?
Jesus isn't impressed with you. This may be your main problem with Christ. He isn't impressed with you and you make your life up of impressing people and having people address you by your accomplishments and actions. Your works are as wretched rags to Christ.
Reason does rule. This is why there are only 10% of the US population atheists. Which aren't really atheists. They are just rebelling against their strict parents that told them they had to go to church as children.
In a country as rich and well rooted in Christianity, do you really think there are REAL atheists? This isn't the UK. The US actually has a Bible belt. Texas is the buckle!!!
You merely deny the truth because you want to live your life believing you are better than others. The only truth is Christianity and it's also the only religion where all people are equal in God's eyes. Nothing else places people of every background creed, race, belief on equal ground like Christianity.
Accept it and move on.
Once again you are defeated.
Heres somethin i found while studying the bible one night. I took the important numbers 1, 3, 7, 10, and 12. I then used the coresponding letter from the alphabet.
Which arranged is L, G, A, J, C.
Lord God Almighty Jesus Christ.
The numbers also equal 33. The supposed age of Christ at the ressurection and the number of years King David reigned over Israel. Thought it was interesting.
Everything points to a creator. The differences between a man and a woman point to a Creator. The fact that you are an atheist proves God exists. For without God there would be no atheists. You can thank God that He is real so that you have something to rant and gripe about.
If Christ wasn't real, we would all be wearing turbins and women would be oppressed. Animals would have more rights than humans, and everyone would be a vegan. Babies could be killed anytime you wanted to in or out of the womb.
Good thing Christ holds this world together by His awesome power and love.
Atheism is about selfishness. That's all. It's a religious doctrine of how to take and never give. Simple as that.
Atheists are the lowest of society throughout history period.
[You're using the "god of the gaps" argument and it doesn't hold up. Just because some thing is unlikely, unexplained, or hard to understand doesn't mean that a magic man in the sky did it. That's a pretty silly conclusion.]
Wait a minute, "god of the gap"? If he believes god created everything then he has a theory that's complete. The onus is on you to provide a complete theory, the gaps aren't in his theory they're in yours.
Science gets dumber with each passing year. They rely more and more on the unobserved and less and less on the actual findings at hand. Thats very dogmatic of them to be so dogmatic concerning the science dogma. I personally think that the dogma of science which is taught to kids in schools is and can be called a dogmatic religion. Seems there are more dogmatic faith issues in science than even religion these days. Now if that isn't dogmaticism I don't know what you can call being dogmatic. I'm quite sure you are a top atheist dogmaticist aren't you.
Christians don't disagree with the observed science at all. It's the unobserved and assumed that we disagree with. Rightly so! Science isn't supposed to be about faith it's about facts. When you take faith and put that into a realm of the natural world like science seems to do these days it's not longer science but faith.
No Christians reject science. This, you are very confused on. Christians reject the assumptions that people like you make. Garbage like million or billions of years, etc... I'm a troll because I speak opposite of your silly superstitious beliefs. So be it. I will be labeled whatever you would like. Either way, I will eat your lunch. You have nothing to stand on. I have the truth. Where does that leave you? Talking out your ass as usual. None of you walking dead atheists can even agree with each other on ANYTHING. So I win once again!
The Bible says the fountains of the great deep opened up, meaning large amounts of water stored within the earth. Pangea would have been the only possibility for a preflood environment in order for it to be considered "very good" by God. This would have easily made it no problem for any animals to have came to the ark. Animals generally sense danger (ala tsunami) they would have come to the ark on their own. The continents would have rapidly separated just as happens in any strong earthquake. This would have sent tidal waves over the top of the land mass very rapidly. The drift has been slowing, so this means it was faster in the past. Volcanoes would have popped up quickly (eg. Hawaii) shooting ash into the air blocking out the sun cooling the atmosphere to prob 175 below 0. but the ocean would have still been very warm from the drift and volcanoes. causing polar ice caps(ice age). Again, none of this is observed either. Just the evidence. my theory is no worse or better than your theory. except I have the Bible and you have assumptions.
