I guess whatever it is you want to know must be unknowable then.

No, you just seem unwilling to answer my questions honestly. What I want to know is totally knowable; what sort of basic questions do atheists ask that demonstrates that they do not know the basis of Christian belief?

First, let me see if you're someone who knows the foundation of the Christian faith. Tell me first, what is the definition of sin (without looking it up on google)? I want to see what you know.

Also, how did sin enter the world? What was the purpose of Jesus dying on the cross?

Maybe larger font will work...


For those who agree with judge judy's response to dependants, could you please complain how the exclusion of lame-sex couples away from marriage has any effect whatever on pancreation among heterosexual blouses?

NOW THAT'S FUNNY! ^_^^_^^_^^_^^_^

I've already answered those questions. Search back through my posts to find my answers.

I'm sure there are plenty people in asia who have heard of 'some guy named jesus' but think that he's a zombie because he rose from the grave.

That's just a difference in perspective you get when the cultural weight of an idea doesn't outpace the amount of sense it actually makes.

You know how he thinks he answered it? By citing anti-gay Bible passages. I. Kid. You. Not.

When I sited those passages, it was to answer your question about the basis of my opinion on why I don't agree with gay marriage. Now you take my answer and apply it to a different question. You clearly don't understand what it means to have an honest discussion when you do that.

I think I'd have more luck talking to a brick wall.

I hope you'll try that. Let us know if the brick wall gives you the answers you want to hear.

Well, I'm pretty openminded. What is your answer to poolerboy's question?

It was answered dozens of pages ago in this and other threads. He always responds by telling me that my answer doesn't answer his question. At one point recently, he even suggested that he might consult with a brick wall to get his question answered. I'm still waiting for the results of that.

At least be honest enough to admit there's no answer, rather than pretend there is one somewhere else.

The fact is, there is absolutely no argument against same-sex marriage that would carry any weight under U.S. law.
