God is great my confused friend, and He concluded all under sin, so that he might have mercy on all. God required what was past...it was necessary to see which/who in Adam's race has love or hate for God.
So, God is "not" all knowing? He doesn't know the future?
It is really difficult to love or hate an absent being.
If I were as dishonest in debate as Goldie is, I'd remark that you just Knowed that's the sort of film he'd watch , but I'm not, so I won't mention it.
(ps sorry for my over -use of "" but that just seems to be the only appropriate reacticon when considering God's servants.

On another note...Why did Apollo Creed have to die in Rocky 4...wouldn't just badly beaten been enough?
Do you think it was foolish for Rocky Balboa to fight Ivan Drago for free on Christmas, and, do you think that Drago got paid by the Soviet Government for the fight or was it just part of his job as a Captain in the military?
More quibbling about nothing, my misguided friend. It is laughable enough that you don't see that the posters are simply countering what Litletwitness considers NOT to be myth and allegory, even if we do, but even more laughable that you are using such irrelevancies in an ongoing campaign to make atheists look unreasonable and thereby debunk atheism.
You just carry on as you are old mate, and like Litlewitness here, you will not do your credibility any good.

What exactly does this have to do with the price of tea in china?
I hope you realize that stating that thousands witnessed the miracles of Jesus is different from providing witnesses who can be cross-examined and confirming what they saw. I doubt that you would passively give yourself over to the police, without a defense, if they came to your door because some person you don't know or will never know told them that you murdered your neighbor. This is what you expect us to believe as evidence, while I'm quite certain that you would willing go to jail because of the testimony of some inaccessible stranger.
How many eyewitnesses does it take to prove something in a court of law? Because 4 eyewitnesses documented Jesus' activities in the Bible. In addition there were secular writings from that time period that also documented it. Heck there's more evidence for Jesus than there is for Alexander the Great!
And if I decide I'm happy with my brains in working order...? What then? Apart from you being sorry, that is.
I don't understand your question.
