Interesting that you prefer to see it in terms of conflict. From where I'm sitting, most people in this thread, whatever their views, are simply here to exchange ideas and experiences.

If you were thinking that anyone was going to be persuaded to change their beliefs/views/opinions as a result of this thread then I think you have been a tad ... well, let's say optimistic.

Well, that explains a lot. I think perhaps it's gone to your head a bit.

Well no ... the non believers take the so called 'good book' and point out the improbability of its 'stories' and then the believers avoid the question and go off on a tangent. Repeat.

Snakes don't have vocal cords .... NEXT.

Not read the thread lately but this post caught my eye...

Its always like that around here though.

Whenever some religious person in the world says something someone doesn't like, chances are they come straight on here and start a thread condemning it. When religion does some good (congregation comes together and raise money to save something), said people are a bit more reticent.

Said my piece, i'm off to stone homosexuals and start a war...

Wait for me. what's the title of the thread?

Re: The existence of God
 

I am probably the biggest supporter of the morals that the Christian religion teaches. :)

Re: The existence of God
 

Pity.

Re: The existence of God
 

You can't walk on water with bare feet would have been a good one Chris :)

you can't do it in sandals either.

Re: The existence of God
 

Well, originally I was going to post that a dead man coming back to life after spending a couple of nights in a tomb is a more obvious target than a talking snake. Especially as only one of them is the keystone of the entire religion (clue - it's not the snake).

But I thought I'd be wasting my time, so I didn't bother. ;)

What if he was in a coma?
he could have have come out of the coma and let himself out. did they say what they thought he died of? they could have mis-diagnosed him.

Re: The existence of God
 

He came out of a 36-hour coma, unwrapped himself, groped his way to the mahoosive rock sealing the tomb entrance and just rolled it away? Then fought off the guards?

You've been watching too many A-Team re-runs. ;)

As far as cause of death goes, well being nailed to a wooden beam and planted in the ground for a few hours would tend to do that to a man.

Re: The existence of God
 

Nah .... the talking snake 'story' puts a pointed hat on that!

Re: The existence of God
 

He had 12 mates to help him do all that.

Robin Hood :)

The nails can't have been as good as they are today. he could have gone into shock :shocking:
and passed out:sleep:

Re: The existence of God
 

And talking of Easter, which we sort of were, I'm off on holidays in the morning so I'm probably not going to be here to see this thread end the way they always do. So please play nice and remember not to argue with whichever moderator eventually turns up to give you all a good kicking. :p:

Re: The existence of God
 

Easter bunny time of year again.

It's him that causes the trouble :)

I only came here because me modem was bust! :(
