I love this response:
Oh
really? Well
let's see about that, shall we?
First of all
YOU believe that a cosmic Jewish zombie, who is his own father, can make you live forever if you submit to a magical soul-douching ceremony (complete with magical water, incantations and waving of hands), symbolically eat his flesh (in the form of a cracker) and telepathically tell him that you accept him as your master so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was tricked by a malevolent entity (disguised a talking snake
with legs) into eating a piece of magical fruit from an enchanted tree
(etc.)
and that there is something horribly wrong with people who ARE NOT so stupid and gullible that they can be made to believe such outrageously ridiculous codswallop.
Now
this is where you object, and say something like "That's not what I believe. That's not christianity." But
in fact
it is a concise and entirely accurate description of your christ-cult. I can understand how my choice of words, and the irreverent way in which the description is expressed might get your knickers in a knot and cause some consternation
but where is it WRONG, exactly?
You see
you CAN'T object and take offense because it's WRONG
you can ONLY object and take offense because it is expressed in a way that reveals just how droolingly stupid it is
and you just can't stand to face up to the fact that you've been lied to and bamboozled throughout your whole life.
As if that's not enough
check all that apply
* a universe in which all that exists are the earth and heaven (Genesis)
* solid 'firmament' structure (the sky) separating the earth from heaven (terrarium earth) (Genesis)
* talking snakes (with legs) and donkeys (Genesis)
* shepherd staff turning into an asp
* demons chased out of people and into pigs
* woman turning into a pillar of salt
* friendly spirits
* evil spirits
* walking on water
* multiplying loaves and fishes
* food falling from the sky
* conception by a child-molesting ghost
* people raising from the dead
* sun stopping in its tracks
* parting the sea
* people being bodily scarfed up into heaven (which, by the way, lies 'right up there', on the 'other side' of the sky)
* world-wide flood that drowned the earth to a depth of 40 feet above the tallest mountain (Genesis)
* creating people from dust bunnies and ribs (Genesis)
* magical tree of knowledge (Genesis)
* invisible, magical sky-fairy (god) speaking from a burning bush
* ritual cannibalism
eating god in the form of a cracker
So
basically
what you are telling us is that people who DO NOT BELIEVE all of that magical, mystical, mythical, superstitious, ignorant codswallop above will 'believe anything'.
Now THAT is absolutely nuts. Do you not (perhaps) sense a little 'disconnect' there?... with REALITY maybe? SANE people do not believe ANY of that nonsense.
