Jeremiah 10: 1-8

divegeester: Have you decided whether or not you consider the Bible to be “evidence” of God’s existence?

We’ve discussed this several times before and you ignored my responses then so why are you asking again?

Are you claiming that you discussed it in a genuine and honest fashion on this Thread 175179?

Your claims about a god figure that has issued instructions and convoluted, magical promises about rewards and punishments strike me as nonsense. I think a non-believer taking this stance on a Spirituality debate and discussion forum is neither a "blow hard" nor "self-righteous". If I were saying to you that you should either agree with me or you else you are ...[text shortened]... ct beliefs, then that would perhaps be an example of being a a "blow hard" nor "self-righteous".

Yes blow hard, theist does not equal Christian. Crawl out of the bottle and smell the coffee.

I didn't say it did. I don't claim that god does not exist. Theists/Christians like you claim that a god definitely does exist has revealed himself to you. There is no credible reason why I should believe you.

If the specific religious ideology that you propagate were synonymous with "theism", then I would certainly be an "atheist".

So you simply claim that you can't decide what to believe.

You could simply say that without having to bring other people into it. Why so you feel the need to try to put down others? Doing that makes you a self righteous blow hard.

When did I ever claim to try to concince you I am correct?

I don’t believe you have any information about a supernatural being. I believe that you have simply rote learned and internalised some specific religious dogma that I have no reason to believe.

This is an odd thing for you, of all people here, to say.

This is a debate and discussion message board. People commenting on the beliefs, claims and arguments expressed is par for the course.

When have I said anything about your beliefs?

I simply correct those who give faulty statements concerning the facts of the Bible. Outside of the Bible, what comment have I ever made?

What does this non-sequitur counter-question have to do with the post you were supposedly replying to?

On this thread for example. Don't worry. I don't mind.

In other words, yeah you are right.
