I've seen you try and debate religious people. The reason why you fail to convince them of anything is that you're really shit at it. If you want to debate anyone, you have to start off with knocking down the prepositions of their belief system, and you don't know near enough about any organised religion to do that.
Debating religious people is easy. Most of them don't even know their own religion. |
Thing is that I'm not out to convince anyone. I just question things people bring up and leave it up to them to figure out an answer. Many a religious debate I've participated in, regardless of method or behavior, has ended in
'well you can't prove he doesn't exist' or
'it's a belief, it works for me and that's all that matters' or even
'you are right about everything, god did all that'. Which is the equivalent of putting their fingers in their ears and yelling because they ran out of counter arguments. Which brings me back to the 2 year old.
Also, I've spent 10 years on a Christian elementary school. Being forced to read the bible and being forced to pray every morning. I won't say I know everything, but I know at least as much as the average Christian. Which, like you pointed out, isn't all that much.
