2 Atheists Confronted with Truth...2 Different Outcomes...

[Daisy]

Simon Greenleaf (1783-1853), esteemed Harvard law professor, admitted he didn't believe in Christ's resurrection.

"Have you considered the evidence?" a student challenged.

Greenleaf taught his students to study all evidence before making conclusions, so he undertook an honest study of Christ's resurrection, found the evidence compelling, and became a Christian.

Dr. Francis Crick (1916-2004) won the Nobel Prize for discovering DNA.

He admitted DNA couldn't have come about by chance and said the origin of life was "almost a miracle." However, Crick mocked Christianity the remainder of his life.

The Bible tells us that people "suppress the truth ... because God has made it plain to them. For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse." Romans 1:18-20.

This is a pretty closed minded way to live your life. Anyone that agrees with you exactly is accepting of god's truth, and anyone who doesn't must just be lying to themselves or intentionally dishonest.

You can't even agree with all of your fellow Christians about any given topic, I see you fighting with them here constantly as you're a radical even among Christians. So how do you expect to have objective truth for nearly 8 billion people, each of which will interpret each passage a little differently, when you can't even agree with other Christians?

Your cherry picking is transparent. Pointing out a scientist that became Christian does not add validity to your beliefs, especially when you ignore the fact that far more people are leaving your religion than joining it.

I don't see a single thing presented in the OP that can be regarded as "truth."

 

[Daisy]

o how do you expect to have objective truth for nearly 8 billion people, each of which will interpret each passage a little differently, when you can't even agree with other Christians?

I don't...Matthew 7:13,14...

One atheist died a Christian and one atheist died an atheist...that can be verified as truth...

 

[RabidAlpaca]

I don't...Matthew 7:13,14...

You're a Jehova's Witness, which makes you weird even to Christians. You can't even agree with Christians, so expecting other people to find your strange and perverted blend of Christianity appealing is unlikely.

If an atheist becoming Christian is evidence Christianity is right, why aren't all the Christians who are abandoning the religion to be atheists proof that Christianity is false? You're lazy and inconsistent.

I follow the Bible...not my problem if others don't...

"each of us will render an account for himself to God." Romans 14:12

One atheist died a Christian

Impossible. Let me fix that for you One atheist died a christian converted to christianity before he died.

 

[Daisy]

Same difference...

It is not, lol, exercise some grace when you're wrong, and maybe brush up on your grammar skills.

Yet the Bible is so incredibly vague and subjective you found one of the hundreds of different Christian denominations. Try getting some Christians to believe what you do before you try to proselytize to atheists.

That you're repeatedly ignoring the fact that far more people are leaving your religion than joining it shows how weak your faith really is. If it wasn't on such unstable ground you could talk about it.

then they are both dead. no difference, are you going to tell me there is?

which god are you referring to?
"Anthropologists estimate that at least 18,000 different gods, goddesses, and various animals or objects have been worshipped by humans since our species first appeared. Today, it is estimated that more than 80 percent of the global population considers themselves religious or spiritual in some form."

 

[bongsaway]

Same difference...

No it's not the same and if you don't see it we can also assume you are blind to other realities.

Watch out or she'll hit you with another bible verse.

Only mine is the right one!!!!!!!!!!!!! Lol

'The bible', which of dozens of versions is it you follow?

 

[devildavid]

One atheist died a Christian and one atheist died an atheist...that can be verified as truth...

But is it The Truth? Lots of people die with lots of different beliefs. There is not great truth to be gleaned from that simple fact.

To you, maybe...

 

[Daisy]

Swwoooosssshhhhhhhhhhh...

 

[devildavid]

To you, maybe...

To all those who don't believe it is the word of anything but human beings, which it factually is.

This one...

"May people know that you, whose name is Jehovah,+
You alone are the Most High over all the earth." Psalm 83:18

 

[Daisy]

Well, evidently both of you understood what I was saying...

 

[devildavid]

This one...

"May people know that you, whose name is Jehovah,+
You alone are the Most High over all the earth." Psalm 83:18

It all depends on what translation you use. Plus, god never said that this was his name, a human being named him. And your quote is from the OT, which applies only to Jews. Three stakes and you're out!

 

[RabidAlpaca]

To you, maybe...

If you're too lazy to ever address the arguments of atheists why are you here trying to convince atheists of your religion? As soon as anyone starts asking you questions you shut down and refuse to engage.

I'll try one last time. If cherry picking an atheist who became a Christian adds credibility to your religion, why doesn't the fact that FAR more Christians are becoming atheists add credibility to atheism being correct?
