“To nonbelievers.. How can you not believe after reading this?”
I have low expectations but I’ll read it.

“you say there is no such thing as Jesus?”
Not exactly. I say that i have seen no reason to think that any Jewish protester fighting for Jewish freedom and Church reform had a direct line to any gods.

“If you know anything about the bible then you know that Jesus rode on the back of a donkey.”
I know it says that, sure.

“After Jesus died the donkeys was marked with a cross on their backs. That cross remains on the donkeys back today.”
I have read a few ‘just so’ stories like that. Why the elephant’s trunk is so long, why frogs don’t have pussies, why Raven’s feathers are black, and where Rainbows come from. Nothing terribly compelling unless, and until, you can show that donkeys did not have such markings in 30BCE.
ALSO, the oldest drawing of a crucifixion shows a T-shaped cross, not a t-shape. So, two strikes against this story being divine evidence.

“That is to show that Jesus was real and he walked on this earth just like you and I are.”
Ken Ham once posted a statement saying that Atheists have a religion without credulity.
I’m sure he MEANT credibility, but i like the statement as it is. YOUR religion obviously has credulity.

"I know you are going to try pick this statement apart, but just stop and think for a minute.”
I did. That’s why i reject it.

“That couldn't be created by a big bang.”
The Big Bang didn’t create donkeys.
And why isn’t EVERYTHING Jesus used marked with a cross, now?
Crosses on date trees, crosses turning up on unleavened bread no matter how you bake it, crosses always showing up on woven sandals…
THAT might be compelling.

“First, there are observations - physical findings.”
More importantly, as i understand it, repeatable observations. Everyone that tries it sees the same or very similar results.

“Based on observations, a conclusion can be predicted.”
Predict a conclusion?
Maybe watching a murder mystery on TV, this is possible.

“This prediction becomes what we call a hypothesis.”
The hypothesis is an educated guess, not a prediction. Based on what we know about physics, say, nothing moves forever.

"When a hypothesis is tested, it is either disproven, or it becomes a theory.”
No. Just…no. It’s tested A LOT, as well as the tests are criticized. There’s a lot more to it becoming a theory.

“After further testing and observation, the theory may be proven.”
No. Never. Every ‘theory’ in science is falsifiable. Not ‘proven’ at any time.

“At that point, we call it a law.”
Laws are just very specific situations where we think we can predict how matter and energy wil interact. It’s not part of the theory hierarchy.

“ until the angels fell in love with the humans on earth and married them”
I don’t recall the Bible mentioning love or marriage.
The sons of godlusted after the women on Earth and fucked them.
Where would an angel get the money to pay bride-price to the father?

“Why are devotees to atheist darwinism”
Evolution is a science. Not a religion of darwinism.
And all of science is secular, not atheistic.
No science requires you abandon theism to examine the evidence.

"so fearful of the facts if those facts are not under the strict control and guidance of darwinism's high priests??”
We’re not afraid of facts.
YOU are. And we dislike creationists using spin and outright lies to discredit the science.

Columbia Mayor Daniel Rickennman provided the following statement after Tuesday’s vote: “Tonight’s vote was not taken lightly……Make no mistake: Columbia will never tolerate abuse of any kind.”

Conversion therapy IS abuse, Raniel Dickennman!

It’s like trying to “cure” someone of…

…being left-handed

…being an atheist

…not drinking alcohol

…supporting Greta Thunberg

“Your naturalism, Mr. Atheist, cannot account for the laws of logic”
Humans created the laws of logic. Logic is a tool used to evaluate ideas. We had ideas, we came up with a way to tell the better ones.

"any more than it can account for objective truth,”
There are things taht are true no matter the beliefs of the observer. How is that something atheism can’t support?

"and your empiricism could never know of the laws of logic even if they were real”
You’re so full of shit. That’s like say we cuold never empirically establish righty-tighty, lefty loosey.

"In effect, your very counter-argument to rebut me assumes the Christian God against whom you so diligently and foolishly fight!”
No, it really doesn’t. That YOU attribute logic and morality and whatever else to your invisible friend doesn’t make it so.

“You think millions of years created the Grand Canyon? I suggest that it could have been created in one year and flow dynamists have proven it is a distinct possibility.”
It’s not straight, though.
i really doubt flow dynamics experts have stated that the Canyon could be excavated in a year.
Consider the water pressure necessary to move that much earth in one year. It would have eroded the crust in a straight line.
Look at the map of the Colorado River today. There are places it curves back on itself. Now imagine using a 5-inch firehose to do that through a football field of mud.

No.
Genetic material demands life.
Adam was created out of the dust, but it wasn’t until God’s breath entered him that he became a living being. At least, according to the Bible. There are a few places where it makes clear that it’s the breath that makes us alive.
It’s why Noah didn’t have to save anything that doesn’t breathe through nostrils.

And when we die, we return to dust.
I don’t think there’s any point to consider the dust of our creation anything but finely ground dirt.

Now women have to worry about some self-righteous fucktards hyped up on delusions of "celebrity” permission live-streaming them on the toilet and then telling them, on stream, the invasive self-appointed judges of the feminine didn’t think they were pretty enough to be women. And that’s why their unblurred faces and vaginas are on the internet forever. Hope you’re proud of yourself, J.K. because you’ve ensured no woman anywhere regardless of how YOU want to define them is going to have any right to her own body, privacy, or dignity treated as an annoyance to be brushed aside as the mewling of an inconvenient child who should be further disciplined for troubling her “betters.” Your wild disregard for the safety of any woman sickens me, but what else should I expect from the mind that conjured up Howlers, magical public child abuse that curses the recipient to potentially life-threatening injury if they try to avoid becoming a public spectacle and the baseline morality of your fictional world - a reflection of your own mind - considers this just as acceptable as knowingly sending your protagonist back to a monstrously abusive household at the end of each school year when he has the means to emancipate and financially support himself in the wizarding world and supposed sworn guardians that might act as his caretakers, a role that would better position them to keep the murderers they know are after him at bay. Which is to say sanity-straining in how it is accepted as though any alternative was unthinkably improper.

Well, the way things are going with Little Bomber Man Kim Don-un & what’s left of his ‘base’ burning even more support bridges with those saying ‘I didn’t vote for this’: and that’s not taking into account those who didn’t need to say that who won’t be voting Republican in the midterms and for reasons pre-’Twelve Day War’, in Soviet America king destroys you.

Some time after a war decades ago which lasted only half that time, Jimmy Carter was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize after he, Sadat & Begin ended it.

So how can a ‘Stable Genius’ completely obliterate his chances of being awarded the same?

And actual feminism suffers, as this means not only are trans women still being demonized, but it encourages these egregious taintbadgers to harass and attack even more women in bathrooms simply for not living up to a certain standards of femininity...

“Atheists need to realize that morality doesn't coincide with the concept of 'survival of the fittest,'”
Fuckknuckles need to shut up about things they willfully disunderstand.
As a species, one of our survival tactics is banding together and protecting the weak. Margaret Mead said the first sign of civilization was a skeleton with a healed broken leg.
Morality is a tool that allows us to live together in big groups without killing each otehr when someone invents the bagpipes.

"and if I'm a product of the latter, I'll live my life according to that principle because that's what's natural.”
No, you’d only live by a poorly misunderstood caricature of what you think it says.

"If I truly believed in atheism and all of its implications, I would admire Hitler more than I would Gandhi.”
Hitler? THe Catholic that had Darwin’s books burned? I don’t think you know a fucking thing about atheism. Just your imaginary life without religion.

Rev. Joel Webbon #elitist

Webbon replied that he didn’t believe the order was “unconstitutional” or “immoral.”

Well, you of all… things should know that you cannot spell ‘Believe’ without the word Lie.

Given the First Amendment, I’ve never understood how opening the daily session of Congress with a prayer of any sort can be considered constitutional. And if Congress is still paying a Congressional Chaplain, it’s just as unconstitutional.

Good luck. The last time the USA had to fight a country with so high a population was Japan in 1945, when they were 100 millions, both in the mainland and the colonies.

Between this and the mountains, Iraq and Afghanistan would look like Club Med.

When Trump walked away from the White House in 2021, the media declared victory

…and when Donald ‘Grover Cleveland 2.0′ Old Fart walked into the White House again, just six months later we’re all declaring victory.

At how Kim Don-un & his cultists have Fucked Around & Found Out so hard the fact he’s obliterated his chances of actually being awarded a Nobel Peace Prize is the least of his problems.

Because how - between now and all those Republicans who didn’t need to say ‘I didn’t vote for this’ will obliterate him in the midterms: with his poll ratings penetrating lower than a MOAB device now - two years from now he’ll be reduced to a lame duck a l’orange he’ll be begging to do a Nixon & resign, thus giving us the ultimate Schadenfreude-flavoured victory as your Fuckup-in-Chief walks out of the White House for the last time to take that final trip on Marine One.

So much for ‘Trump 2028′, eh…?!

IN A WORLD darkened by spiral decay, the Modern-Day Christ talks alone. Now a martyr. Now a victim. But done as tits—the last limousine rebel on a bum planet. He’s not here for you to gain neon. He’s now here to be tripped. Where he’s to sleep. To race the row. To awaken the night emo who she still takes. And to dodge the swarm of zombees that gather wherever the truth dares to brain.

“Read closely, it's a THEORY. This does not mean that it is true.”
It does mean it’s the best explanation we’ve yet found for all the observations made so far.
On TV, cops, lawyers, and diagnosticians use ‘theory’ right before they make a guess.
In science, scientists start with a guess, form a hypothesis, and finally, after a LOT of work, publish their theory. And get crucified in peer reveiw. if it survives that, it’s stronger than any fucking ‘guess.’

"Tell them that if they believe it so much, why don't they merely make it a law?”
What the fuck would a law of evolution look like?
A law is a claim that we can predict how matter and energy will behave in a specific situation. We cannot predict how a species will react to a change in the environment.
We’re not going to be able to say ‘if the climate drops an average of 5 degrees in a region, animals there will evolve to have snow-colored fur.’

"There should be no relevant reasons for that.”
Just science and how it actually works. No biggie. Nothing you’d be interested in.
