    sry for the slow reply, I just now saw this :/

    1. Kind of a pointless argument to make with an athiest, but ok.

    2. Your answer reminded me of something else, if the Bible and God are so perfect and true, why are there so many sects of ---------? And why are some of these books written through people by God ommited?

    3. k heres some more examples for you then. My grandparents have donated 10% of their salary, plus donation for things like buildings, to their church, believing that if they ever needed help they would get it. Now my grandma needs medical attention and are drowning in medical bills. And guess what, the church refused to start even a fundraiser for them, and they told her husband that they can't handle her anymore (shes recently been diagnosed will minor insanity) My step moms and my fathers children can't have special rights at their church because both their parents are divorced. My aunt tried to faithful to God but basically got kicked out because shes gay.

    4. Ive seen quite a few people tell non christians they are going to hell, just because they are non believers. Actually I believe someone recentyl said that in this topic, but I'm too lazy to go quote it this far into me rant.


    Just to clear things up, my best friends since third grade is christian, his mother is the secretary at a local church. I am by no means claiming any of this is true to ALL christians, im simply stating my experiences.

    I hate when people argue with free will. Like one of the question I quote, God gave us free will while theres fate and destiny that conflicts against it. Oxymoronic? I'd hit that.

    Why does he need to? Would that make you believe in him. If you see God coming down from the sky, this huge being thats tall as the Twin towers performing miracles you would believe wouldn't you. But God doesn't work that way, and does this mean the people who believed in him from the start with out seeing him get a bonus? Then rather those just believing after seeing him perform miracles

    If i seen him with my own eyes or seen a miracle happening that would help thousands of people then yes i would probably believe in him but i still wouldnt go by the bible, ive had a great life without looking in the bible so why should i start then?

    Here's another argument I read. Since God created everything in the beginning in a vast emptiness, he must have created Evil and Sin therefore He is Evil. What is the theist say about that? I foresee arguments such as "Evil as a test".

    Okay, I'll reply to the first 20

    Replies in bold.

    Deuteronomy 21:18-21- Metaphor for Hell. You really gotta stick with the context. Also, before Jesus

    Thats all I've got in me right now. I'll probably do some more later.
