But then as a skeptic you're most likely determined to dismiss probability.

There is such a thing as hyperbolic excess of language and the probability is astronomical against even 1 or 2 points matching identically on a prophecy to say nothing of as many as the poster above listed.

Splendour, why do you always post links. Look at the homepage of that link you just posted and please ask yourself wtf you are doing. Anyone can post a link to a page that says anything. I can post a link to a page that explains how 90% of the people on this planet are lizzard-like aliens in human skin. Just stop please, its pointless.

It gives the detailed explanation of a certain culture's hyperbolic excess at the bottom which explains the prophecy.

By linking I'm leveraging communal knowledge to get more detailed answers.

The link before it had an aerial photo showing the spots of the fishing nets.

Now why is that so hard to understand?

I think this fear/intense hatred of something they mock as meaningless shows just how real God is even to their own subconsious (cant spell obv)
yep terrified in the same way we are terrified of communism, totalitarian regimes and dictatorships.

think harder why is it that we atheists seems to care so much about christianity and islam (wait we fear islam too but how does this fits into your neat little thesis??) but are pretty much indifferent or in favour of the eastern religions?

But this is a non sequitor. If we all feared Thor it does not count as evidence for Thor's existence, nor as evidence for his non-existence--It's just irrelevant.

yes clearly i must have worded my post badly :|

what i was trying to say is that we do not fear God or Jesus rather we fear the church, the followers and the dogma that is christianity.

I'm starting to get burnt out with this forum. Each new poster is starting to make Splendour look like a rocket scientist. The above is what counts as a rational and reasonable argument to this guy. Is our education system this corrupt? It hurts my brain and I start to feel hopeless about any good theistic posters showing up to replace the likes of Aaron W and Bunny.

By the way, to the deep thinker who posted the above -- imagine if someone came on here and professed that they believed in vampires. All the atheists and probably at least 1/2 of the theists would attack that person. By your logic, that would prove that vampires must be real!! The intense disbelief that people would mock these vampirist is proof that vampires are real and have infiltrated their subconcious.

By the way, deep thinker, the reason most people seem to single out Christianity is..... drum roll, because we live in a Christian culture so its the one that's most in our face. If we lived in a nation that worshipped the Aztec Gods, you would find that most atheists talked about that.

please post more of your deep thoughts.
