But you've just got to have faith, the most pathetic statement I hear from theists.
My favorite is "you're twisting it to fit your rhetoric"
No Cathy it says clear as day 'Jesus fed the poor and healed the sick' there is no fine print attached saying 'but only if they worked for it'
I have a philosophy of to each his own. I do not try to influence anyone, however, if someone wants to push it I first warn them that I will ridicule each and every fallacy they use, especially appeal to ignorance, which is 99.999999999% of their arguments. Then I ask why they are so comfortable with incest. After all only Adam and Eve were created and they had only sons, so how busy was Eve?
I don't argue with them. I state my position ( I'm atheist pagan) and let it go at that. They won't convert me with endless arguing and harassing, and I have now desire or need to convert them.
Nothing worth addressing. They're just that pitiful.
