P.P.S. Moloch, king of cherry-picking and master of ignoring arguments, you seem to have forgotten to answer to the following arguments, based on actual sources, after throwing out yours so boldly, some of which without anything to back it up:
I try to avoid tl;dr posts...
If you have something in specific you would like to debate, please be specific and short... I will not debate 20 different topics each post... 1-2 tops
If I did not respond to something in your 3 page long post... it's probably because I didn't read most/any of it
As for cherry-picking... that's not me, that's the bible... it says both good and bad things... how is it cherry-picking if I point out a few bad things?
It's cherry-picking for you to say the bible is good/holy, because you ignore all the bad stuff it says...
I could easily pick out 101 things that are immoral in the bible... yet people ignore all that immoral stuff, and call it a book of morals?

The fact that a Christian (be it a moderate one) happens to use actual reason and scientific (in this case historical) proof (with sources) to refute someones claims more than an Atheist does amaze me.Quote

Cherry picking as in ignoring the claims I provided counter arguments to. Also, title:Quote
Christianity is Poison
"Good and bad", eh? Also, the guy you were annoyed with changed the name of the topic BTW.

Umm, the problem is I'm not saying the Christian bible is entirely good: it's a book written thousands of years ago. If it was completely undeniably "good", there wouldn't be as many branches of Christianity as today.Quote

I have no objection in you picking out the antiquated and/or obsolete parts of the Christian bible, I do however object calling the entire religion "poison" and as such provide counterclaims to what you say.P.S. Your claims, in general, seem to reveal this "all or nothing" mentality which suggests that you are leaning towards gnostic atheism, which, taking all the old scientific theories debunked and replaced by new, currently more accurate ones, seems silly.
