How does this answer the OP?

What? I created this account because I'm very active in the business and investment section and feel me using my main monicker can sabotage my business dealings, I've always been just a viewer of this section and avoid meddling but this idea came to me yesterday after seeing the misleading topic of one of you
Is this how you accuse every new member of using alternates or only atheist? Are you saying no new atheist are out there not meddling? Its hardly surprising seeing many of arguments devolve into insults and name calling, I'm not yet a day old on this section and I feel like calling you unprintable names already
You remind me of the skepticism I faced earlier in the business and investment section with they also thinking I'm a banned scammer using alternate monicker
Let's stay on topic pls
Seun I hope this is alright, this is an alternate but I created it to protect my business interest, I won't use this monicker anywhere else, you can even ban this monicker from posting anywhere else if that's possible
Thanks for your understanding

when Christians read the Bible or Muslims read the Koran and they see something that doesn't make sense, they would go on mental gymnastics to explain this situation
this is Akin to how everyone's brain does when the eye sees something that defies immediate explanation

but give Christian a Koran to read and Muslim a Bible and see how they go on that same mental gymnastics to ridicule the book you just gave them

So moniker red herring is their rejoinder to the thread?

Now to the OP
the logic used by Christians when thinking about anything else gets suspended temporarily when thinking about the happenings in the hole-ly buybull
I said this on another thread

to be honest, there's been lots and lots of new alternate monickers made by these Christians; some by atheists but Christians have made far more in the past one week!!!

that guy that uploaded a pic for instance has 5 known monickers probably has more that are unknown, so he's actually guilty of what he's accusing you of, most Christian apologists here also have as many or more monickers, I even know one who has 10, probably and pretends he's his niece from Pennsylvania with one of them ; he's just playing a game of psychological projection most likely feels uneasy and sick to death with every new atheist monicker; don't let him get under your skin, he changes monickers to pretend to be new but his attitude stinks out every time, he can't hide it

you're welcome if everything you said here is true, even I won't reveal my real identity and would advice other atheists to do the same unless absolutely necessary

@Op I want to encourage you to center your Arguments to The new testament. it just dawned on me that you guys Pick wholly from the old testament.

anyways like I've said b4 I ain't a Christian I am a follower, 'lover' and believer in THE LORD JESUS CHRIST

NB. if you guys Insist on hammering on the old testament there are a lot of theologians online who have answered lots of the questions you guys put up

SHALLOM SHALLOM

Christians and Muslims believe that their scriptures can never be wrong so mental gymnastics is the only way to defend some of the things written in inside those book. William Craig is one of the best christian debaters but he is such a confused person sometimes. When cornered he says things that are completely inane. He once said the people that wrote the violent parts of the bible weren't inspired by God and just wrote what came to their mind. He really said that.

this becomes a huge problem when they're trying to convince someone else who hasn't suspended that "logic" and makes them dig their holes!

The Quran is just stories of the bible but the writers were high on ass juice and camel piss tiger Mohammed certified okay to drink
For example
Adam was 90, feet tall
The golden calf that Aaron built for worship when Moses went to mount sinai mooed
Allah turned Sabbath breaking Jews into apes
The sun sets in a puddle
Mohammed split the moon in half(also in the hadith too)
How no other civilization recorded such an event I don't know for Islam
And the threat of hell was basically on every surah with things like
-jinns would pout boiling water on your mouth
You would secrete your puss
And other bullshit
The Abrahamic religions though

guess what? the Muslims believe it fully

there's an article that examines what'll happen if a Muslim is preached to http://www.patheos.com/blogs/crossexamined/2016/11/the-devastating-muslim-test-for-christianity/

Richard Dawkins once said he doesn't want to debate Laine Craig and Christians quickly said he was scared, he had to give his reasons https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2011/oct/20/richard-dawkins-william-lane-craig

DelusionKiller:

the slaying of the cannanites is something that's heart wrenching

Committing genocide against the indigenous people of Canaan was made easier by the fact that they were willing to fight for their ancestral homes. It's easier to slaughter people who are trying to kill you, even if you're the one who started the fight. Had the Canaanites tried to welcome the newcomers and pursue peaceful treaties, genocide might have been harder. Even the most fanatical religious zealot has a harder time slaughtering unarmed, peaceful people.


Apparently Yahweh thought of this and took steps to ensure that nothing like this would interfere with his plans:



There was not a city that made peace with the children of Israel, save the Hivites the inhabitants of Gibeon: all other they took in battle. For it was of the Lord to harden their hearts, that they should come against Israel in battle, that he might destroy them utterly, and that they might have no favor, but that he might destroy them, as the Lord commanded Moses. ( Joshua 11:19-20)

So Yahweh "hardened" the hearts of the Canaanites to guarantee that they would "come against Israel in battle." Had he not done that, some of the Canaanites might have chosen a more peaceful solution and the Israelites might have been tempted to befriend them. Instead, they slaughtered everyone.

He also did the same to the Egyptians by hardening Pharaoh's heart, someone who sees his wrongdoing and wants to make amends couldn't do it because Yahweh hasn't slaughtered all firstborn sons

This is thus a persistent pattern for Yahweh: order one group of humans to harm a second group of humans, then take away the free will of the second ground and force them to act in a way that ensures conflict can occur. This sounds remarkably like a child torturing small animals and we all know what happens to kids like that.
