How about consistently posting in an inappropriate forum and violating the rules of that forum? That do it for you?

Well, I certainly do agree with you on one point, probably the only one point in which we are agreement. You said "The promotion of a cheap commodity", this may well be one of the few true posts we get from theists. I agree that christianity is indeed a "poor commodity" it is a substandard belief structure, as ideas go it is certainly "bargain basement" stuff. You give this mythological diety of yours all sorts of powers, standard stuff for religions, and the protestant version there of doesn't even come from first hand manuscripts, it is instead a paraphrasing of work done by King James of England, a re-write of a flowery rewrite that was more concerned with poetry than accuracy in translation, mythology puffed up and made pretty for it's prom date. Yeah....cheap commodity, I certainly do agree.

Every word of your post further exposes the mind of people who have no clue what faith means. Just try Him out. What harm can it do?
if this is the best argument that christianity can come up with, we, the unbelievers have nothing to fear from religion. Actually we want no magic tricks or false promises. All we ask is for "Proof" that any of the myriad of deities whose names are being used to deceive humanity, that these deities actually exist. Claiming a sunrise is an act of god won't work, a sunrise is a natural occurrence, claiming a flower as the work of a gawd is ridiculous. It took evolution hundreds of thousands of years to slowly evolve that flower, to have followers step in and say their "gawd did this", is insulting, there is no basis for this assumption while evolution is, quite literally, written in stone.

That's hilarious. Try checking up on the Spanish Inquisition or the Salem Witch Trials.

Ignorance and misinformation is, unfortunately, passed on. Just watch Fox News. It's especially hard to open people's minds when they refuse to listen.
