1) Why don't you take it up with Archbishop Welby ? It's all well and good spouting your bollocks on here, but 2) I bet you'ld never dare confront a 'believer', ( Christian, Muslim, or Jewish ), and try to convince them that following the Abrahamic tradition is misguided and based on falsehoods and deceit.

Expand  

1) That isn't a realistic suggestion.

2) I have talked to JW's in the street standing by their bookstands about it. Of course we hit a brick wall and they couldn't provide anything other than a circular argument... 'The book is true because the book says it is true'.

1) If you are convinced you are right, don't you have a moral duty to 'save' him and all of his congregation ?

You are yet again showing a fundamental misunderstanding of my position. I don't claim there is no God, I don't think any God claim has met it's burden of proof. There is a difference between those two positions and you and others in this thread fail to grasp this. That is not being convinced about being right, as I have not made a claim.

And others do. The problem though, is that you're incapable of respecting an opposing opinion to your own and keeping quiet about it. 

A wise man once said that opinion is the lowest form of human knowledge. It requires no accountability, no understanding. The highest form of knowledge is empathy, as it requires us to suspend our egos and live in anothers world. 

Get over yourself.

As someone has already said this is the lowest of the lowest hanging fruit. Anyone can tell a Jehovah's Witness where to go. Shooting fish in a barrel. 

Absolutely pitiful that's your only answer to my point. Pathetic, considering the crap you've put up in here.

I mean actual humans, actual people you speak to. Real people. Tell your Mum she supports genocide when she sends a Christmas card. Tell your nieces or nephews you won't give them an Easter Egg while you give them the peado speech. Have a big discussion over the Christmas Lunch with your siblings, your father.

Real people. You believe this shite, so tell them. Go and tell them, don't just type it out on here. Tell them to "counter your points". Tell them. Tell them. Ask them to provide proof. Ask them. Ask them.

You've never ever done that and you never ever will.

If they do then they don't understand what burden of proof means. Because it cannot be circular... i.e. the old book is true because the old book says it is true.

Many claim that God is 'all knowing', in which case he would be aware of what level of proof is required to satisfy every human on the planet. If he does exist, he has chosen not to provide the level of proof he knows it would take and instead opted for a system of an old book that was translated and mistranslated into multiple languages and allows for schisms to occur, that is a pretty inept way of communicating a message.

I don’t seem how MLG can define God not being kind when he has limited understanding of Her existence.  You only know what is ultimately kind when you have the full picture. Avoiding heartbreak on this planet is very limited criteria

Well that would certainly help. Because the human eye is terribly designed if it appeared into existence. It is wired backwards and is not efficient at all.

It is how it is due to evolving from what was originally a flat bed of light sensitive cells which eventually formed a ball.

Deeply flawed as those people who state their belief also have their own definitions for their god. Problem is no two definitions of god are the exactly the same. Each person creates their own definition of 'him/it/whatever'.

You are the most stubborn and blinkered poster on the forum.

If only one person believes in the existence of something purely on faith, and without that thing being further defined, then it is clearly not 'impossible' to believe in something that lacks definition. If each of those many millions of believers each holds their own personal view of God, it in no way vindicates your argument; in fact each and every one of them disproves it.

The design is perfect as hundreds of millions of other people do have great eyesight, so I’m sure they’d disagree with you.

The claim many make that it is pefect design from an infallible, all knowing, all powerful deity falls apart if there are some that fall below standard.

It isn't just some that fall below standards, all human eyes are wired badly if they were created. A good design would be for them to not have the blood vessels pass in front.
