Your religion, not mine. Judgment's not against the rules of my religion. (It's kinda required.) So, are you telling me that you ignore the tenets of your religion when you're facing people of other religions? That Christian morals only apply to other Christians?

Feri is *all about* getting in touch with gods. Sometimes intimately. If YHVH wants into the mix, he's welcome to take a number.

5) Who else are you going to believe if not Christians? What!? Are you gonna believe what Satan tells you? He might tell you he's actually Santa Claus!! Would you believe him?

I might, depending on what evidence he provided. I doubt it, though. But then, I doubt he'd try to tell me he was Santa Claus. Why should I believe someone's sworn enemies about his nature? Why not listen to him, and decide for myself who I think is lying or mistaken?
This is the key point in this whole thread: Why should anyone decide that *your* interpretation of reality is better than their own?

6...) Forgiveness for mistakes and sins, thats all. We're sinners in one way or another. I know that God would be real pleased if on the basis of this thread, even just one person went and actually started investigating for themselves the nature of life and God. Ya! Gods gonna like that.

Do you think it's likely, based on this thread?
This is one of the things I always wonder about--do Christians who argue with atheists online actually think they're *helping* anyone? Do they think anyone is convinced because of their discussions?
Would your god be just as pleased if a couple of agnostics decided they really hated Christianity, on the basis of how you acted in this thread?
