How can you be a True Christian™ if you don't take the Eden story literally?

Name-calling "incompetent" is no a logical argument it is not explaining anthing.



That's not an argument. You didn't quote a single thing I said. You are hand-waving. Your argument is "nuh-uh". Wow. More faux-atheism from an apparently vacuous non-being.

What you're saying is not even close to what I wrote.

God is not limited in any way. God can write the book however it chooses with infinite different variations, with each character, including yourself duplicated infinte times, and you are choosing thoughout your life which one of those infinite worlds is the one which is "real" for you.

that's 48 words, 2 sentences. compacted for someone who cannot escape from living in a short-attention-span theatre.

I'm putting the link in here, so I can keep retrieving your replies easily. This is how resourceful intelligent people win debates. You might want to take notes and adapt.

If you want explanations then you need to slow down and make proper arguments. I did give you an explanation. You ignored it.

I didn't.



Then your claim fails too. See how that works. no creation, then you can't claim God is immoral. Ta-ta stupid faux-atheist nonsense. Come back when you have something intelligent to offer. Which will be never since, faux-atheism is just empty. Literal nothing. There is nothing good about it.
Nope. Try to reason. Don't dig yourself deeper into the hole that you are already in.

Nope. And I am certain you have nothing of value to offer in this thread or, honestly in any debate. I read your posts. The only thing to learn from them is how to avoid, deny, and blame. Which is not my style.

Then you didn't understand the refutation.

Nope. Here's what you said:

Dude, you can't use concepts that you don't understand. That is an instant loss.

And you cannot assume a creation without evidence of it. And even worse, you would need to provide evidence for a "before the creation". You put extremely heavy burdens of proof upon yourself and never even try to fulfill them.

There you go. We can stop there. Your claim is a fail if there is no creation. You lose. God cannot be immoral without creation. Duh!

When you revoke that. Then we can move on to what "before" would mean for an absolutely eternal being. Already addressed it. But like I said, you cannot seem to escape from a faux-atheist la-la-land. So one little drip-drop at a time.

Nope. You are not thinking rationally again. I would suggest that you look up the word "creation". You only demonstrated your own ignorance again.

Nope is not an argument.

Without creation where is your evidence of immorality? If you can't respond then you lose again. With your head figuratively shoved into the poop-chute.

I've known a lot of Christians (defined as those who believe Jesus died for their sins and rose from the grave) who do not take Gen 2-3 literally. They seem to do just fine.
A lot of people do just fine. I wasn't aware that doing just fine was in question.

It is when the argument is obviously worthless and false. Did you forget your now obviously hypocritical jab at @Audie ? Try making a substantive post if you want a more serious response.

Hee. I did, multiple times. The faux-atheist bigotry produced under the screen-name @Audie is completely without substance.

I already told you, that I am convinced you have nothing to offer in this thread or any other religious debate. remember the Joseph or Arimathea nonsense? Where you were like "read your bible!" and it was obvious you were beyond ignorant of the story?

Anyway. I think I'm done replying to you for now. There's other much higher quality conversations happening right now.

Bye.
