Geez Louise, have you got at least 2 life times for me to list their inane responses?

  1. The Bible is the word of God, EVERYTHING it states is 100% true,
  2. You are a Heathen/Pagan, you will be going to Hell for not believing in God/Jesus,
  3. Their best of ALL, "You are taking it all out of context,
  4. "Let Jesus into your heart and then you will know the truth."
  5. Quoting biblical verse after biblical verse just like they had a computerized program running in their head,
  6. "Have you ever read the Bible?
    I could go on and on for page after page but I don't want to bore anyone so I'll leave it at just those 6 if no-one minds.

@kodimerlyn LOL, you should see their shocked faces when I tell them that, a) I have read it cover to cover, page by page, word by word, and,
b) that I HAD to read it as part of my studies to gain a ThD ( Doctorate in Theology and Comparative Modern Religions) whilst being a DELCARED atheist and still remaining an Atheist to this day.

@kodimerlyn As my Dad taught me, "If you ever get into a debate/discussion, etc, it is always better to know more about the subject than the person with whom you are debating."
And, trust me, it works wonders against the Faithfools, I often get invited to debate with all kinds of Preachers, etc, and, not boasting in any way, shape nor form, I've only ever been in what you could call a Stalemate situation once in over 50+ debates and that was because the Mediator decided to call 'time.'
I'm pretty certain that on a number of occasions I've actually manage to make more than a few Faithfools start to actually think deeply and questioningly about their beliefs.

Pretty much, anything they damn well please. But it would be interesting to find out what no.1 answer would be.🤔

"You just want to keep on sinning."

That's one thing I love about the term secular humanist

Winning an argument with an intelegent person is difficult,...winning an argument against someone stupid,or in a ''faith''is impossible

Have they ever won an argument with an atheist?

"I'm sorry you're an atheist," they say as if I have a terminal disease.

"I chose rational thought over magical beliefs," I reply firmly.

Silence. They don't know what to say. Perfect.

@linxminx

You're welcome, darling.

"How can you not believe? Just look at a tree. Look at the clouds."
Yeah, You got me.

That reminds me of the Chewbacca defense from South Park.

Scientists say" people came from monkeys"," why are there still monkeys today?"

Why don't they learn to google? [abc.net.au]

we don't use that part of the Bible

m16566 Level 7 June 25, 2019

That's funny, I use the whole thing as a door stop.

it's God's will

I'm so glad I wrote a will. I left everything to my mom.

I'll pray for you.

My daughter, like me, is agnostic. Her boyfriend recently told me, "That's why they call it faith!" when they visited me last week and the subject of who wrote the bible came up! I love making christi-trons think about their own belief system!

I don't debate them, remembering " Confuse not the minds of the ignorant, they will only hate you for it".

You'll be sorry when you're dead. 😀

"I doubt I will, as I will be in a state of nothingness, but I sure am sorry I ever spoke to you". Bah-dum.. Tip your waiters and waitresses, I'll be here all week.......

"But what if you're wrong?"
"That's not what the scriptures says."
"You're just angry at god."

JimG Level 8 June 25, 2019

" What if you're wrong".. I've heard that one a lot and my response is the same ? back to them. They refuse to consider that possibility and I walk away saying that we are each only responsible for ourselves, nobody else and that we'll both find out when we die. Until then, it will be unknown.

I also like #3, " You're just angry at God", to which, if I had already bothered arguing with them at all, would probably lead me to say, "Nope I'm not angry at a god I don't believe in, but I sure am tired of idiots like you".

Reminds me of a joke a stand up said, "St Peter was at the Pearly Gates with thousands of people waiting to get into heaven. He announces that the catholics were right and so all the jews, protestants, muslims, etc were condemned to hell. Sorry!"

"Don't call me a monkey!"

Love Jeff Dee.

@J75243 They lost a few hosts over the last week or two due to the kerfuffle...although Matt hinted Sunday that there may be hope some return (Jen, Tracie, John, and Phil have quit the show). In any case, people in the live chat were asking for them to reach out to Jeff Dee to return to hosting, which would be great. I remember he used to do one of their podcasts for a while after he quit hosting AE years ago, but I think he had stopped doing that for sometime now also (I could be wrong).

Funny seems they think their god(s) can etch in stone, but can not write on paper???

"Well, we'll just have to agree to disagree."

My favorite insult to fling at arrogant, self-righteous fundies who try to bully me is to reply to their whole superiority trip by saying, " You may think that Jesus loves you, but personally, I think you're garbage wrapped in skin".

I can only speak from my own experience. Usually it’s something like, “Please untie me ..”

"Should I start with the bondage ties or these chain restraints? Maybe this genital cup?"

@UrsiMajor You one kinky bear.

Trust me! I promise you will find out what your punishment for eternity will be! Or something similar

"The enemy will twist words and sow the seeds of doubt, as they will speak with the tongue of the devil".
In my work, I support a service user to church about twice a month. They encourage me to take Christ into my heart, but so far they have failed to tempt me. The guest preacher on Sunday was very entertaining and spoke well, even if he identified the likes of me as the enemy. Each part of his argument strengthened my atheism.
The thing with the one true God, is there are so many of them!

Guest preacher! Oh what fun! That's like having a substitute teacher. Get an accomplice, a convincing glass bottle of water, some baking soda, some red-tinted contact lenses and a crucifix. Have accomplice put in red contact lenses, mix baking soda with water and put on mouth/shirt for frothing look. Run into church yelling, "Father! Father ! I need your help with this exorcism! The power of Christ compels you!" If said accomplice can crawl upside down on walls- bonus!

"It wasn't really a whale it was a giant fish..." I suppose this asshole goes here:

I dunno. I'm pretty sure Megan Fox swallowed Jonah Hex.

Arn't you worried about your soul, as if the argument beyond that gets very far. They can't get their brainwashed minds around the idea that in our minds such a thing is a pointless worry.

azzow2 Level 9 June 25, 2019

I would say - sold the ol' soul to Satan for a night of pleasure with the hottest babe in the world. Yea Satan! All hail the king!

@UrsiMajor That would not work for me either mostly because I could not bend my mind around any mythology what so ever.
