No, I do know what Christians believe, because most of them can't keep their mouths shut. As for Jesus, there is nothing incoherent about analyzing a character in a book, even a fictional one, by his comments. It's called literary criticism.

But I'm willing to be "done" too, because if there's one thing I've found about dealing with Christians, it's that if you answer them, they call you rude for daring to speak up on this forum, and if you don't they accuse you of having run away from their Bright and Shining Truth.

The other thing I've found is that arguing with them, even if only to show you haven't retreated, is like arguing with a mental patient firmly convinced that he is Napoleon. He has an answer for everything. The answer makes no sense most of the time, but he'll go on forever because he's a mental patient and believing in some fantasy is his whole identity.

Free Republic is pro-God and this article is posted on the Religion Forum on Free Republic.

If you do not wish to hear about God or religious belief or believers, then you can ignore the Religion Forum altogether by NOT using the "everything" option on the Free Republic browse option list. Instead, browse by "News/Activism." When you log back in, the browse will reset to "everything" - so be sure to set it back to "News/Activism."
