Funny, all Dan's strawmen look like regular humans. He should probably take some art lessons to learn how to better draw men of straw.
(I did not mean for that to rhyme.)

"Yeah, and I only know that the Elves generally live to be 600-700 years old because The Dungeon Master's Guide tells me so. The doesn't mean the book isn't an extremely obvious work of fiction that only the willfully ignorant would turn to for real world truths."
You do realize that these sort of people think that D&D teaches real magic and Satan worship, right? They think it's as real as they think their bible is.
Which we only learn after science discovers them and we shoehorn them into biblical passages. Like for instance how the world used to be flat until science discovered otherwise, then the phrase "circle of the earth" was chosen to show how God gave us that knowledge all along. Even though the bible also mentions the "four corners of the earth." Just ignore that, that part was metaphorical.
Well, if we assume Jesus is a benevolent deity we can come to the conclusion that he at least likes me or probably loves me through induction of understanding of what benevolence means. No Bible needed to come to that understanding.
So you fail at your own presupposition since I didn't need the Bible for that one. Though this relies on the postulates that A: Jesus is Real and B: He is god and C: He is benevolent.
Get this Liberal Blasphemy outta my sight! The Real Jesus isn't so weak-hearted and Limp-wrested enough to actually LOVE! He comes down with his SWORD and delivers a righteous smiting to his enemies, just like his daddy! Get yourself an Original KJV, and leave those other watered-down liberal bibles behind! Jesus and Love shouldn not be used together, unless you're making statements like 'Jesus loves the smell of blood in the morning'!

What is the answer that the non-wasp guy was going to say? Was it some crazy scientific theory to explain the great flood, "proof" that the Flintstones was a documentary, or that women have the power within to stop rape pregnancies? Good ol' fashioned Christian "science"?
@Dr. Razark:
Good point. I remember one dumbass TV preacher asserting that Satan was teaching children to use psychic powers via Pokémon . He then picked apart the old opening song to "expose" the satanic messages within. Of course the only thing he really "proved" (aside from his extreme paranoia) was that Satan is teaching our children to unlock awesome mind powers while encouraging them to be the very best they can be and to never rest on their laurels. Not sure where the bad part of that comes in. Maybe it's because Satan at no point encourages them to maim or kill anyone for being different and repeatedly mocks and punishes the roaming group of brigands, Team Rocket (clearly an attack on ancient Israel, who took pride in their ability to kill and loot people without provocation).
Yeah, things like rabbits chew the cud and Pi=3.
There is no current scientific inquiry that indicates anything regarding Jesus.

Please read this and weep. It's about yahweh the so call God. Yahweh/YHWH is not God but just a god.
"The concept of God, the Supreme Being, is so crucial and fundamental to our lives that any misconceptions about it can do incalculable harm to our worldview. This is, especially so, when the misconception is an impersonation of that most elevated being by a local deity of such a violent nature as Yahweh.
For instance, many Bible readers have been led to believe that the unprovoked attacks and invasion of other nations by the ancient Israelites and the blood-curling slaughter of women and children were ordered by God, the Supreme Being.
That is a lie.
It was Yahweh, the local deity of the Jews, one of the most blood-thirsty deities, who ordered those massacres. African gospellers especially, should carefully distinguish between the humanistic gospel of Jesus of Nazareth and the clannish inhumanity of the Israelite deity, Yahweh, which has brought on both the Jews and the rest of the world the very worst of human calamities."

but some things we only know because the Bible tells us so

Show me in the Bible the full instructions for the NHJ MPM-202 media player; also, where to download the most recent firmware update which includes continuing a video file from where it was paused/stopped previously: because the manufacturer no longer exists*. Even it's site is now just a 'Buy This Domain' page.
*- an exec of NHJ buggered off with the company's operating capital, thus it went bankrupt. The MPM-202 is now an ultra-rare item for collectors of media players
When first released in 2005, it cost £350. Several years ago, I bought one secondhand - in a local branch of Cash Converters - for £30. It had the instruction book with it (but not the original software disc, carry case or remote control for the video recording dock), and the mains charger & a battery, USB cable, dock, audio/video composite & S-Video leads. In some gadget collectors forums, some have this player, but have had to work out how to use it by trial & error, as they didn't have the manual with it. Other manufacturers have manuals for their products in .PDF format which one can obtain via their websites. Like I say: NHJ's ceased to exist.
I therefore know more than your 'God', Dan Liar.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
