Faith is a very personal thing. Many things in many religions don't make any sense at all. It's the interpretation thatv matters. And even when some things are scientifically proven, some people still remain sceptical. So I guess it's only a matter of believing what you want to believe whether it can be proven or not.

Sure. It would be the worst thing that has ever happened in the world if Christianity is true though. It would mean that most of the people who have ever lived will be eternally tortured. But I am not opposed to evidence. I follow the truth wherever it leads and if Christianity were true I would reconvert to it and do my best to try to soften god's heart a little and get him to free the billions of good people from hell.

This question is really irrelevant though because it would be impossible to prove Christianity is reasonable, unless new rewritten Bibles fell from the sky for everyone.

Yes. most definatly.
The problem with many christians is they actually think that all atheist are FUNDAMENTAL atheist. Fundamental means that, no matter what the evidence one will never change their mind. That is a word that is usually fitting for christians. No matter what the evidence that stacks up against them, they will never change their mind. Even Jesus says to the religous folk at the time "You wont believe truth even if a man rose from the grave before you" (paraphrased)
Do you have any compelling arguments? They would have to be something better than Josh Mcdowells (even the scholars dont use him) Lee strobel's,Jp Holding's, Mike Licona's and a few others. Glenn Miller is ok, at least he speaks respectably.

Truth beyond reasonable doubt would mean that one would present physical evidence which validates the answers to the "significant questions", removing the need for faith by proving the existence of God and devastate the nature religion.

Nothing could make Christianity seem true beyond a reasonable doubt. If they could the Jews would be Christians wouldn't they.

The short answer is yes. The trick is that 'true beyond a reasonable doubt' will have much more stringent criteria attached to it by an Atheist than by your average christian.

This is not possible, to prove Christianity beyond all reasonable doubt.
There are too many reasonable doubts.
How would you go about proving it?

Sure, of course.

If somebody could prove that Godzilla existed, so that the truth of it seemed beyond a reasonable doubt, I'd believe that too.

The point, unfortunately, is that such a thing isn't likely to happen.

I have seen some convincing answers to some of my questions, but I would have to switch my understanding of 'loving' to include eternally punishing someone close to me, especially since I already knew they would disappoint; I would also (and more importantly) need to be convinced that a singular deity would be in perfection then start creating 'people' spirits (?) that would cause grief.
So, I can't be convinced that Christianity is reasonable, according to the definition I've been given.

If Christianity was proven beyond a reasonable doubt, then it would be proven. I wouldn't have the ability to "believe" something that has been proven true.
