People rot. YOU have no evidence there is an afterlife.

So you admit to not doing your research.

You are presuming YOUR version of YOUR god exists. Here is where you deny your argument is circular.

You make up excuses all the time. Your paragraph I am referring to is one of them. The fact that Christians need to cherry pick their invented facts proves they are biased.

Just because you say so does not make it a fact.

Exactly what do you consider "verifiable evidence?"

omega has proven himself to be devoid of logic and honesty. He is nothing but a clanging gong.

The trouble starts when people make stupid statements they can't prove and insult those more intelligent than they are.

A God who can create the heavens and the Earth could also make reindeer fly, if he so chooses. The problem is, we don't actually notice any flying reindeer. Much as we don't actually notice corpses returning to life and flying away.

The fact that we don't see it doesn't mean it is not happening, unless you have some evidence it isn't.

Think again.


Are you ever going to post some bigoted remarks I have made? Admit you can't and you will feel better after the original embarrassment blows over.

Just to clarify my remark, I am not saying I am more intelligent that trout. Just that many theologians and just some average Christians are highly intelligent and would trout to shame.
