It was to show you that you can't pull claims out of your ass such as "the bible is true" without proving it. Every religion claims to be the only truth. # Christianity: 2.1 billion # Islam: 1.5 billion # Secular/Nonreligious/Agnostic/Atheist: 1.1 billion # Hinduism: 900 million # Chinese traditional religion: 394 million # Buddhism: 376 million # primal-indigenous: 300 million # African Traditional & Diasporic: 100 million # Sikhism: 23 million # Juche: 19 million # Spiritism: 15 million # Judaism: 14 million # Baha'i: 7 million # Jainism: 4.2 million # Shinto: 4 million # Cao Dai: 4 million # Zoroastrianism: 2.6 million # Tenrikyo: 2 million # Neo-Paganism: 1 million # Unitarian-Universalism: 800 thousand # Rastafarianism: 600 thousand # Scientology: 500 thousand "it's hard to say who's right and wrong in this situation" Also its quite the important situation isnt it? If i was wrong i would be going to hell for eternity. If you're wrong you will be going to hell for eternity.

Not to worry because the chances of a hell existing is the same as the flying spaghetti monster being the creator of the universe. *There's a God, if you do what he says you go to heaven, if you don't you go to hell" A first grader could come up with that childish idea. Perhaps it is time for the world to grow up? | |||||

You grow up. You're in a debate section, you will inevitably be made fun of if you don't substantiate anything you say. It's common sense. You pre-supposed everything and then penalized and scrutinized all of us for "not getting it." You don't listen to everything you hear, you ask "why?". | |||||
