"You believe in a book that has talking animals, wizards, witches, demons, sticks turning into snakes, food falling from the sky, people walking on water, and all sorts of magical, absurd and primitive stories, and you say that we are the ones that need help ?" — Dan Barker

That's exactly what the say, but I like this one better. "You believe that a cosmic Jewish zombie that was his own father will save you from an eternal hellfire if you symbolically eat his flesh and drink his blood, then telepathically inform him that you accept him as master. He will save you from sin that was caused by a magical rib-woman eating an apple". :D

YES. So what do you believe, evolution? Which means that Nothing+Time+Chance=Everything?? And I'm fantasizing?

I believe everything in the Holy Bible. Have you spent more than 1 hour of your life reading it? Do you own one?

Now, just for the record, the Bible does have talking animals, demons, sticks turning into snakes, food falling from the sky, Jesus walked on water, but I don't see any "magical, absurd and primitive stories"? And I'm not aware of wizards.

But there is quite a bit you left off. Jesus turned water into wine, raised the dead, made the blind see, made the lame walk, fed 5,000 with five loaves and 2 fishes (they picked up 12 baskets of leftovers), and claimed to be GOD.

Secular documentation without the Bible indisputably records that Jesus existed. The question of the ages is "WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT IT?"

JESUS WAS EITHER WHO HE SAID HE WAS OR A MADMAN. WHAT WILL YOU DO ABOUT IT? YOUR ETERNITY DEPENDS ON YOUR ANSWER.

The alternative is to believe that something came from nothing (this universe has just always been here). And that random chance resulted in an orderly universe and that life on this planet "just happened" with no intelligence responsible for all of it.

I think that it takes more faith to believe that than to believe that a supernatural being who exists outside of time and space created all things and has the power to rain down manna from Heaven & walk on the water that He created.

As to witches and wizards there are people alive today who claim to be those things. Why should it be so fantastic to believe that there were people in the past who made the same claims.

As to you needing help, we all need help to be freed from the blindness that the "god of this world" has placed over our minds to keep us from turning to Jesus and being saved.

2 Corinthians 4:3 And even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled only to those who are perishing. 4 In their case the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelievers, to keep them from seeing the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God. 5 For what we proclaim is not ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord, with ourselves as your servants for Jesus' sake. 6 For God, who said, "Let light shine out of darkness," has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.

they are actually not Jews because of fact Jew's don't think the messiah has come yet. they have not got self assurance Jesus so believing in Jesus and asserting your Jewish of course contradicts one yet another.... it extremely is unhappy that there are those Evangelist Christians that decision themselves "Jews". provide up this custom now, your disgracing the two Judaism and Christianity.

God Himself wrote the Ten Commandments. Do you think that they may have some value?
