Or more appropriately:
"what do you think would be superior at extinguishing the flames--kerosene or gasoline?"
"(insert deity) has plainly said that (religion) is superior to all other faiths."

Rapture Ready in a nutshell. Why love and understand when you can hate and sow discord?

"The supremacy of Christianity over all other faiths is not based on arrogance."
All religions make the same claim about themselves.

All religions like to believe that their gas doesn't stink.

And yet the religious have the audacity to wonder why their beliefs are losing respect.

"The supremacy of Christianity over all other faiths is not based on arrogance. It is simply based on facts."
Kind of playing fast and loose with the word "facts" there, aren't you?

Allah has plainly said that Islam is superior to all other faiths.
Buddha has plainly said that Buddhism is superior to all other faiths.
The Flying Spaghetti Monster has plainly said that Pastafarianism is superior to all other faiths.
Eris has NOT plainly not-said but maybe declared ironically in an absolute fashion that Discordianism is inferior to all other faiths, except maybe some, but it depends. But maybe not really. In my pants.

That must be one of the most painful fundie analogies ever, which is saying something.

Nothing but lies by an upstart religion little better than a cult!
Ahura Mazda has plainly said that Zoroastrianism is superior to all other faiths.

> If your house were to catch on fire, what do you think would be superior at extinguishing the flames--water or gasoline? They are both liquids, but one is obviously better suited to quench the fire.
Except you don't use "liquids" to douse a fire. You use liquids that douse a fire to douse a fire.
> God has plainly said that Christianity is superior to all other faiths.
Wonderful! Now go tell that to the Jews, I'm sure they'll be overjoyed to finally hear the good news. They haven't heard it before. Trust me.

neither. personally, if i could manage it, i would dump a shit tonne of freon onto my house. it would be way more effective. high atomic mass, so it can absorb a lot of energy, high density, so it sinks through the air. immerse it in freon, and the fire will soon be out.

"God has plainly said that Christianity is superior to all other faiths."
No, that what YOUR version of Deity says...or rather, a bunch of Mid-Eastern sheepherders claiming to speak on Deity's behalf said.
"There is no coming together for the sake of love and understanding."
So all that jazz about "Love thy neighbor", The Golden Rule, The Beatitudes, The Good Samaritan, etc. from J.C. Himself was simply flatulence, right?

OK, but you've proven absolutely nothing. Maybe your weak analogy works on people who have already been converted, but what evidence do you have that Christianity is water and Islam is gasoline, and not vice-versa?
There is no coming together for the sake of love and understanding.
From the way I see most Christians act, you're absolutely right.

Love and understanding? Don't be silly. Love and understanding won't get you flying, you need a more efficacious fuel than that airy fairy concoction. Try a mixture of bigotry, racism, misogyny, ignorance, hypocrisy and drama queenery, that will get you blasting heavenward with a vengeance.

It is based on arrogance and that arrogance is why people are turning away from Christianity.

If your house were to catch on fire, what do you think would be superior at extinguishing the flames--water or gasoline?
If it's an oil fire then neither is any good and the water can spread the flames almost as badly as gasoline. It also does badly with electrical fires. What you need in that case is a non-liquid like baking soda or sand. Those will also put out traditional fires too. So if Christianity is water then it is only useful sometimes. But use it too much or in the wrong place and it's dangerous. Hey, you actually made a good metaphor! Oh, and in this example, the sand is secularism. It works in all cases and puts out all fires.
