So just pick one and go for it. Why Christianity though? What don't you like about all the others?
You have had this answered several times. You either lack the intelligence to remember what was posted several pages back, or you are being deliberately obtuse by not directly refuting it. Please, no one give him any hints. Let's see if he can, or will, figure it out and address it.
Your purpose is not to inform, because, according to you, there is nothing to be informed about. No, your purpose is to agitate, aggravate, and disrupt.
No, it was ever answered. Just faith in one with justification from a flawed Pascals wager. I never got a rational answer to why that particular god. Theists have difficulty answering simple questions about their faith but they bank their eternal afterlife on it - you'd think there would be a compelling argument, to convince themselves at least if not others.
Man we've discussed and discussed the theory, you know what a theory, any theory is, right? Again, I'll repeat...waaaaayyyyyyyyy back, I started to choose to believe in God the Bible, It was just that Pasqual’s fifty-fifty odds were just too great for me (no I do not gamble)...so I decided, that I will continue to pray, ask for forgiveness, and always do the right thing... But I never believed that it could stop there. I must become mature in my Christian faith and have definitive reasons for it that are based on reasonable evidence that would lead me to the possible, because as stated before, God can see what is truly in the heart.

Why? What was wrong with all the others? Not good enough for ya?
I believe that the difference found in the Christian faith is that it is grounded on real historical person and eyewitness records about him. The other outstanding aspect of Christianity is that it provides a way to have a right relationship with God, forgiveness for wrongs we’ve done, and hope for the future. All of these good things are offered to us freely, when we trust that Jesus has paid for and achieved them for us. Most religions require us to work hard to get right with God. Christianity offers the gift of being right with God, and having a right relationship with God, because Jesus has done the hard work for us....I am not going to dismiss other religions...
Why do you keep asking and asking? ...Is your purpose is to agitate, aggravate, and disrupt....as seen in from the below.

Christianity offers the threat of eternal hell if you don't believe in it, so there's that (courtesy of a loving god who arranged this set-up deal from the start). There's also the fixed list of immorals that go along with it - handy for judging other people against.
You have dismissed other religions. Food for thought.

Are you sober? I just said above "I am not going to dismiss other religions"....prove otherwise...
The Bible does teach that the wicked will be punished by fire—but not the mythical hell of men's imagination. God is a God of mercy and love. Those who willfully choose to reject His way of life, characterized by obedience to His law of love (Romans 13:10), will die, not suffer forever. They will be consumed by fire and forgotten. They will not be tortured for all eternity....and that is what I believe.
