atheists and agonostic please show some respect and not leave any snide remarks. I'm not a Christian, But do defend it along with all religions. When an atheist asks a question why have I seen no good answers from you. I respect your believes, but do you realise that faith will not convert. do you belive in intelectualism or do you belief prayer will answer it all. and finally how much of the bible have you studied

If a person is fully devoted to living a Holy life and being devoted to God's will for their life, they will not be hateful or arragant to you. . . The problem with the world right now is that "everyone" claims to be a christian, because they confessed their sins one day a long time ago, but it takes alot more effort to be a christian. . . most people believe in unconditional eternal security, or "once saved always saved" That is not the case, we are supposed to strive to be like Jesus was everyday.
I study my Bible everyday, and anytime you have a question you just ask me, and I will try my best to explain it to you.

I mainly answer questions that want a serious response which leaves out many questions posted by the atheists I've seen on here.
I also don't attack them or any religion. Sometimes the Bible condemns a religious practise, which I may kindly point out, but I never attack the person. Not everyone is like that, and I have a hard time picturing people that do attack another as Christians.
My faith will only convert another by my actions which cannot be seen on here, of course. I don't think faith can convert anyone on here. I do pray for people that do post here and, yes, I believe God can reach the most hardened non-believer.
I'm not sure what you mean by believe in intellectualism - because I believe in the Bible does not make me non-intellectual. I'm not sure what you mean by "prayer will answer it all", either. Prayer does work. It has changed my life immensely. If I only had to go by what the Bible said and had no personal experience with God and answered prayer to back it up I doubt that I would be a Christian.
I have read through the whole Bible - not straight through, but books and chapters here and there until I got through it. I've studied the Bible by specific topics and books for about 16 years. I'm still studying.

Well usually when an atheist ask a question it makes no sense, Yes I believe that prayer will solve everything for me if you don't well then I'm sorry, and honestly I haven't really studied that much of the bible, I mean I know some of the major parts but not every little detail. Hope I was polite enough for you. : )
