Re: Delusion
'Since Dawkins is a fire breathing Atheist-evolutionist, is he eligible to believe anything else about Theists?'
Using your method, you are a fire breathing Theist-creationist, so are you eligible to comment on atheists?
Everything you are saying relies on your belief that atheists are the ones that are deluded. The only evidence you have is the word of the Bible. In all previous posts you have failed to justify why you believe this - just because it is written in the Bible, why does that immediately make it unquestionable truth?
As somebody else has already said, books are the products of human beings. It was a human that wrote it, whatever his beliefs were. If I wrote something and claimed it was the word of God, does it make it correct? Or is the Bible beyond that sort of criticism because of its age?
It is hard to have a constructive debate, when whatever is said, you will quote the Bible and say it is the unquestionable 'word of God'.
If you haven't already read 'The God Delusion', I would reccomend it, even if you might not agree with it.
