peace to you all.
=== shouldn't that be 'peace to some of you'?
Interesting points of view.
=== Entirely your personal opinion.
I've never personally met a Christian who was a "savage",
==== George Bush who lied to start a war??? Savage enough?
I've also never met a generous atheist who can freely give without an agenda.
=== you need to cite the athiests you know and how they fail to meet your standard.
Never needed the gospel to be candy coated,
=== Good idea. I hate sticky fingers.
because it doesn't taste bad.
=== you eat bibles? That would explain your dyspepsia.
I can only say that by putting my faith in God
=== Whose existence is moot...
and in the scripture's,
===Why the apostrophe? The scripture's.. what? The apostrophe implies possession. What do the scriptures own, that you perversely refuse to say?
everything written as far as promises for my life are concerned come true.
===Just like the song: When you wish upon a star, presumably.
My prayer's
===There goes that apostrophe again! Why?
are answered and all my needs are met.
=== Might powerful star, Mr. Disney!
People from all different backgrounds and beliefs notice that I am blessed
=== I don't. I think you are nuts.
and often ask me why,
===Yes. Why are you nuts?
and I have to tell them that my solution is Jesus.
=== Soluble Jesus? Well, that's an advance on Holy Communion, I guess.
If he doesn't exist what should I do next?
=== Start living?
Turn my back on him since my prayer to heal my cancer was answered and I'm alive and cancer free for 10 years now.
==== I am sincerely glad of this. Catholics also have this experience and they often put it down to the intercession of saints. I assume that you approve of this too. It's equally as valis a point as the one you are making.
Reject him after I received an unexpected $250000 as an answer to prayer from a company merit award at a time when I was financially broken.
=== You prayed for money? I thought that was a no-no! It would be against my sense of ethics.
A lot of my associates are filing bankruptcy while my business is turning away clients because we can't keep up with demand.
===Happy you! No doubt you will now share the divine beneficence until it begins to hurt your bank account so that those who are more needy are relieved by your payback of Divine favours.
And why are we succeeding? Because we have a promise that non believers don't have, Isaiah 45:3 "I will give you the treasures of darkness, riches stored in secret places,so that you may know that I am the LORD".
=== Treasures of Darkness. that sounds Satanic to me.
Each to his own and I wish you all well, but atheism has never been able to explain why the bible works
===And Christian fundamentalists have never been able to explain why it contradicts itself, why is records horrors and genocides oredered by God, why it gets basic facts wrong (viz Bats are Birds!) and the various mistranslations and sheer inability to understad some of the phraseology from the Greek and the Hebrew...
and why it is prophetically so accurate.
=== There are some here who shall not taste of death before I return... Prophecies like that?
