"Why should the Pope (or myself) for that matter be held to your heretical “logic?” I am not claiming “the Bible takes precedent over atheistic science.”" [excerpt]
Atheistic science has determined that there is no need for a God.

"Those are your words, and by your own words you are a failure of a [Catholic] Christian. The Bible says in plain language that “They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them”" [excerpt, corrected]
Correct, I'm not a Catholic.
And your right, the Bible does say that about taking up serpents, and Paul did demonstrate it.

But to say that unless one exhibits all those things they are not a believer, requires gross ignorance of the scriptures.
(And nowhere does the Bible say that, to be a believer you have to 'take up serpents'.)

"I show you an pretty clear cut instance of Science and the Bible contradicting each other, you try to change the subject. You are just like all those other free-fundies, you claim the Bible is always right, but you’ll never take a risk to prove it." [excerpt]
Strawmaning again are we.

Do you remember what I said about confusing science and atheistic science?

And remember, if the Bible is not always right, your faith is built on a lie.

Science is science, there’s no such thing as atheistic science. Because, science will change their beliefs to fit with the data, Evangelicals will never change their mind. Walk up to an Atheist, ask him what evidence would he need to see to believe in God.

Go to a Evangelical as him what evidence would he need to see to not believe in God.

The Atheist will give you an answer, the Evangelical will just spout nonsense like you’ve been doing for the last few days.
