    Atheists don't believe there is a god so how can they make the statements you include in your post to begin with? "Atheists make claims that supposedly show the God of the bible as being "evil" or "immoral"." Those I know who are atheists don't read the bible. What ever atheists believe is there own belief and they have a right to it. While I disagree with them, I would never argue with them over what they believe. Arguing over religion and religious beliefs between denominations, etc. is simply not Christian. I have never believed that fighting and killing over religious belief is what we should do morally and definitely if one believes in God.

    Kudos to you for being such a Boy Scout but I enjoy debating. When I can actually find an atheist that can carry on an intelligent conversation I enjoy the exchange.

    No wonder you are the "Undisputed 2012/13 Debating Champion!:roflol::roflol::roflol: " , You cannot lose in your own mind...and this mind seems to think debate is simply a matter of ignoring everything that disagrees with you.

    My point being quite simple and easily verified by anyone wishing to review this thread, or pretty much any other input you have provided as of yet on this forum. Your debate tactics seem to resemble a mixture of denial of anything that disputes your personal opinion, and the belief that by simply typing "I Win", you somehow manage to erase everything that clearly shows you have not.

    I might point out as well....that you might take a look at the definition of Ad Hominem, if only to lessen the perception of ignorance you project.

    Definition of AD HOMINEM


    1

    : appealing to feelings or prejudices rather than intellect


    2

    : marked by or being an attack on an opponent's character rather than by an answer to the contentions made




    My comment was opinion based on observation, interaction, and past experience....though it can be seen as an attack on your character, it is actually an evaluation of your skills in debate and if an attack on anything, it would be your Sig line.

    At least you admit your effort to do nothing but flame me. Congrats on that but still nothing of substance. Flame on!

    Then you must be not reading at all. There are numerous well thought out responses that you have completely and utterly ignored, preferring to pick on simplistic responses to reply to, presumably precisely so you can dishonestly complain about the simplicity of the responses.

    Meanwhile your replies consist largely of simple proclamations of yourself being right despite not responding to any criticisms, or pointless stuff like talking about sitcoms.

    Tecoyah is right, you don't care about genuine debate, you just want to stick your fingers in your ears and call yourself the winner. It's hilariously pathetic.

    You are truly one of the most ignorant posters on here.

    Humanism, there is a great Wikipedia article that is free to access. Just Google "Humanism". Pretty simple stuff.

    that he bases his entire argument on a dictionary definition that he doesn't comprehend, how delusional is that!...and the most juvenile of logic, because the word wasn't in existence at the time of the incident it isn't a crime! really?... god must have a great criminal lawyer to uncover that legal loophole...

    if you leave a bunch of rugrats roaming on their own, you'll just be back to flooding the whole planet again. look at innercity public schools.

    Right don't feed. But sometimes it i like a moth to a light. Just have to play and make the laugh just a little bit better.

    And that is what he must claim to be the winner of. It certainly can't be debate tactics.

    Well that is silly. God left 8 people to roam around. That doesn't seem to have turned out any better if you listen to christians.
    Any why not just send the son for the rugrats like God did after he saw that man has faltered again. Even though he knew it was to happen.

    interesting, coming from someone who probably excuses biblical genocide, rape, slavery, etc etc.

    you're actually condemning an atheist for demonstrating higher morals than you appear to have. you guys are a riot :p

    Really? And what makes one belief more valid than another?

    I would say that beliefs that do not justify the deaths of innocents (when it is entirely avoidable) are certainly more moral and superior to beliefs that are the opposite. You are using a story in which a vindictive deity kills everything on earth for people eating shellfish. That is quite simply, and without escape, an absolutely stupid and dangerious belief.

    Wanting people to understand words, is almost the polar opposite of "having something against" words.

    UT OH, NOW *I* AM THE UNDISPUTED DEBATE CHAMPION!

    Too bad the poster didn't want people to understand the word "genocide" like I did in the OP. Clearly the term doesn't apply when used by atheists in their claims. This is indicative of ignorance of the word's meaning.

    Did you not want people to understand that regardless of the use of the word genocide or not, the idea of a deity killing almost the entire human and animal population of the world by slow drowning because he decided the humans were too evil remains horrific?
