Backwards? You cant understand the thread question and yet you want to tell us you have all the answers. Unreal.

Doc,

In Cliffords other book:"Clifford John Warwick Montgomery's Legal Apologetic" ....Clifford states:

of the document than with the admissibility of its contents. It does not automatically lead to admission
of the substance of the document irrespective of its credibility. The question as to whether the
authentication of the gospels under the 'Ancient Documents' rule leads to receiving their
substance into evidence is contentious. It could be strongly pleaded there is justification for
doing so. Yet, it should be noted such pleading would be met by the adverse party's strong
rejoinder"
(pp. 60-61 & 63).

Greenleaf argues that in several places there are discrepancies between accounts of Matthew and Mark,
as sufficient evidence to destroy the probability that the latter copied from the former.
...But when it comes to the striking coincidences between them,( in style, words, and things in other places)
he does not like to attribute such as evidence for the probabilty of one copying the other.

The topic in question (Why are you a Christian?) is in an open forum – nice concise logical question. Non-believers are also entitled to view the postings and are interested in the responses.

Similar to most threads involving religion, somewhere along the line a believer will make comment that their faith is based on proven facts. Non-believers politely ask them to substantiate this statement and basis of their information, out of interest. If a response is provided, the non-believers will point out that these are indeed not facts, with logical reasoning of contradictory information in cases, the more vocal believers get angry, make idle threats, and the scheissefest begins.

Why do those of “faith” argue it to be “fact” when clearly it isn’t – it’s called faith for a reason. Simple guide to the definitions: “Faith” has no proof. Facts can be proved.

I think there’s a lot of brainwashing going on – monkeys believing in ghosts teaching other monkeys to believe in ghosts.

Patriotism (and religion) is the last refuge of a scoundrel.

To accuse me of hacking accounts is both false and delusional. Or maybe you are just a plain and simple Idiot. The result is the same whatever the case, you make false accusations.

So either produce the evidence to back your accusations or shut your yap.

FIXT.
Well, then, start your own thread and see if us monkeys try to convince you of ghosts, liar.

Be easy to prove, just start right up, liar.

I guess you're afraid of us monkeys brain washing you, right? Afraid you're too weak minded to resist and afraid to take the chance? Sure you are. I would be too if I were as half brained as you.

Yes, indeed, but I doubt if our theist friends read the actual wording. Just a word here and there and jump to a conclusion. The mere presence of the term 'legal document' is enough to get them excited.

You are only seeing things from your side, turning a blind eye to the antics of some of the Christians who respond to normal rational questioning in a cowardly abusive manner. Take a good look at the behavior of Jag or Furb and tell me that this is a good example of Christianity

I'm not reading the thread. I already know how it ends. It's always been this way on the campfire.

That's not evidence that I hacked an account to use for trolling. Both accusations are false. The simple fact is that people like you are intolerant when it comes to questioning beliefs.

Either present evidence for your accusations or shut your yap and your childish whining.

But atheism is grounded in faith every bit as much as theism.
