What 'makes you' believe?

So people talking about themselves and what Jesus’ life meant caused you to not believe in Christ’s Resurrection and the existence of God?

Yeah, that sounds totally believable 🙄

We discussed all this before ~ and more respectfully than this, I seem to recall.

Another dodge.

Was there any rational thought process that lead to this realization that you can actually share or was it like one of those brain dead realizations you have when you realize that you have soiled your undergarments?

"The claims that Christians make about themselves and about the meaning of Jesus' life" = Christian faith.

That’s not Christian faith. You completely took God out of the equation. I honestly don’t know if you ever were a Christian if you think God and the Resurrection of Jesus Christ are not part of Christianity.

Thanks for the time update. Can you make a noise like an alarm clock too?

It doesn't really matter, though, does it, that you say you "honestly don’t know" something in a conversation like this with you saying the kinds of things you are saying on this and on other concurrent threads.

Here you are saying you honestly don’t know if I was ever a Christian. So what? What response do you think this is supposed to elicit from me?

I was hoping it wouldn’t elicit any response from you.

What does it matter to either of us if you don’t know whether I was ever a Christian or not?

I’m honestly stunned by how ignorant this statement is. So stunned I had to highlight it and respond to it again.

You think God has nothing to do with the Christian faith? You think Jesus Christ’s Resurrection has nothing to do with the Christian faith?

Are you actually serious or is this some sort of elaborate trolling on your part?

What makes it even more 'believable' is the fact that he cannot seem to give one example of something that he used to find credible as a Christian and give a rational explanation as to why he no longer finds it credible.

I guess it depends on your motivation in claiming to have been a Christian and whether you’re purposefully being deceptive.

I don’t think he was ever a Christian nor do I think he thinks that. He can’t possibly think God the Father and Jesus Christ the Son (and the Holy Spirit) have nothing to do with Christianity.

Look at you 'two', trolling FMF.

It's just like old times.
