If you had an open mind, you would be out there seeking evidence instead of standing there, arms folded, defiantly asking the Christian, "oh yea, convince me" And then immediately going to work to shred the evidence so you can feel better about your atheism. Goading doesn't work with me.

^ And many of us do just that. But we ALSO ask the Christians that we meet. And they.... like you example so well here.... have no answers to give.

And how do you know people shred the evidence given you have NEVER presented any? You have no idea what we will do with evidence until such time as you stop saying you have it.... and actually present it.

There is written documentation that your god hardens hearts. Prove to me your god isn't intentionally hardening mine Jeff. Please?

Thank you for proving my point. Any attempts to provide evidence is always met with mockery and NEVER an ounce of consideration. I stand behind that point of evidence also. An entire film crew reporting supernatural events on set is at least worth a second of consideration.

I'm at a loss for words.

It's a fire. That sort of looks like a hand.

Why do you think that is evidence for something supernatural?

Hey, all I did was repost the picture! Where did I mock it??


But seriously, Jeff, from what I have read on it, the director knew nothing of it until the picture came out. He then went frame by frame and it wasn't there. I see no mention of anyone seeing this, except in this picture. People claim to see all sorts of things. Do you believe in all those as well? Show me proof that there was no photoshop/photo manipulation involved, or proof where all these people say they saw it, and we will have an actual conversation. Fact is, there is very little info on the event.


Even so, how would this be evidence of anything, much less your personal God?

I've certainly never done that to you, Jeff. I've asked over and over to offer up the proofs you say you have so many of, that's all. But you never do.
