You make a response like that and have “JOHN 3:16” as your tag. :-)
As I said, I’d like to believe the claim myself, but don’t want to be taken in by a story that seems implausible. (I criticize the other side for citing lies as evidence, and would rather not be guilty of the same thing.)
Who is this “other side” to whom you refer?
We are ALL on the same “side”, I reckon.
