That's what I thought too, but I'm glad you confirmed it.

This is something that Atheist cannot understand, it would be like giving money to a butterfly; whats a butterfly going to do with money? It won't even understand the value of it. Its not made to understand it.

But, just in case somebody actually COULD understand it, you've conveniently omitted any links or citations of chapter and verse, just in case a wise person would double check what you said.

Its a Theist thing mensaguy. Reading scriptures don't seem to mean anything to Atheist. Jesus was born a virgin birth and lived a virgin life, a lamb without blemish who was sacrificed for all. One has to go back through the old testement and research the difference between goat and lamb sacrifices, then understand the symbolism involved in Jesus being a type of Lamb without blemish who was sacrificed for us. He sacrificed his whole life by living without sin and he denied himself many things.

Oh, you believe in Christ? Does that not make you a Christian? I have seen you deny being a Christian several times...

Anybody can go read a Bible. It's such a simple thing, really. I even posted a link to 100 Bibles online. Pick any version that Christian churches recognize and you'll find that Chapters 1 and 2 of the book of Matthew describe the virgin birth. If you are speaking the truth and not just making stuff up again, there must be a chapter somewhere that says Jesus lived a virgin life.

If you're not making it up, cite the book and chapter. (Your credibility is on the line, you know.)

I could careless about people giving me credibility; I choose what scripture is worth giving to an Atheist and what is not. I have already been around that mountian where they ask for scriptures, only to stomp on them.

Don't know about anybody else, but you just convinced me that you just make stuff up and post it to see what controversy you can create.
