Ok, you must be trolling. well done, sir.

It certainly doesn't when there's nothing to support it you don't even live your own life as if you believed that yourself.

The Bible is more credible than most non-believers will ever want to admit. Unfortunately, most "Christians" are not very credible, and rather fake.

I am surprised to see so few jews in this poll so far. Maybe the jewish actuaries that I know don't piss away their time and value by responding to AO polls.

You guys understand the Bible is filled with sinners...just because a prominent figure in the Bible does something doesn't mean its ok.

"Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God". Satan tried that on Jesus 2000 years ago, sweetie. Nice try though.

"The fool hath said in his heart, 'there is no god'"

We all have to deal with consequences of disobedience. Lot's wife loved the heresy going on in Soddom and Gommorah. She dealt with the consequence. Some consequences are more severe than others. Its important we keep a close relationship with God to avoid these situations. Nothing worse than falling in love with sin.

Jewish people do not get involved in this because it is a small religion; Muslims do not get involved because FBIs monitoring them all the time.

That leaves Christians and atheists. Christians have "raised and taught" values; atheists appeal to rational minds.

Christians have centuries of wisdom....atheists have ego masquerading as intelligence.

They're working on a sunday night? Most of them are probably in NYC where it's 1220am...still awake working?

There are way more irrational numbers than rational numbers. If you're limiting yourself to only "rational" truths, you're missing a huge chunk of the pie.
