SAMESIES! That's exactly my thoughts!

The problem when arguing with Traditional or Fundamentalist Christians is that they are arguing from a different view of reality. They can only support their arguments using other Biblical sources that support their original Biblical Point. Your rational point of view will have little effect on them because part of their belief system rewards blind faith in an largely incomprehensible deity. What I have discovered through Bible study is that their Biblical interpretation is nearly always incorrect and that if their opinion is empirically illogical, it's because they have been taught a misinterpretation of their own Holy Scripture. I can usually prove this using both Biblical and non-Biblical sources. That's when the argument really gets fun.

I like it when one of them starts spouting off about their delusional ideas and then picking them off one at a time.

Nice! I like doing the same thing on random post on Facebook lol.

Imust be getting mellower theese days. The only thing I want to pick a battle about is how religion is affecting our govt policies. Division of church and state-lines being blurred daily.

It was so refreshing a few months ago when I travelled to a party where my son played solo and with a band. At 54 I was the easily the eldest there. Late in the night we where sitting around fire. Subject of religion come up and most of the youngsters are atheist. This is Australia. I hope all elsewhere catch up soon

I avoid religious people who are out to 'recruit'- if I get cornered, I usually get angry. That being said, my ego is big enough that it needs no enhancing; I get no thrill out of relating a story about how I belittled anyone. As the story goes, "Argue with a fool and someone may come along and not know which is which."

Of course you always win because you got logic on your side they got stories lol

It is almost always a gross mismatch.
