re the arrogance of christians in article apr athos rutgers edu dleonar andy bgsu edu pixie writes pardon me a humble atheist but exactly what is the difference between holding a revealed truth with blind faith as its basis i e regardless of any evidence that you may find to the contrary as an absolute truth fully expecting people to believe you and arrogance they sound like one and the same to me i see no wisdom whatsoever in your words i m not surprised that you see no wisdom in them that is because your premises are wrong from the word go you claim that christianity is based on blind faith but this simply is not so just look at the current thread on the evidence for jesus resurrection for evidence that jesus was real and that he triumphed over death furthermore you say that christians hold to their beliefs regardless of any evidence that you may find to the contrary without any evidence to support your claim this statement is little more than an ad hominem argument mind you i don t mean this as a personal attack i m merely pointing out the intellectual dishonesty behind condemning christianity in this fashion it would make much more sense if you could prove that all christians do base their belief on empty nothings and that they do ignore all evidence to the contrary only then can you expect your attack to make sense virgilio dean velasco jr department of electrical eng g and applied physics cwru graduate student roboticist in training and q wannabee bullwinkle that man s intimidating a referee my boss is a not very well he doesn t look like one at all jewish carpenter
