[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]On this forum? No. Way back in grad school, I followed a listserv forum where atheists and theists debated and argued. The ability of the theists to answer the atheists arguments and objections with intellectual rigor as well as grace helped persuade me to embrace Christianity. [/quote]

Well then you should post those arguments here because the theists here to a p*ss poor job of it.[/quote]

Just as it was claimed above, that “the internet has been one of the biggest support mechanisms for those seeking to lose the burden of faith”, so it is also a resource of rational, cogent argument in defense of Christianity.[/quote]

Again, please present it, because I have never, ever seen one.  Present one, the best one you know.[/quote]

It sounds like you’ve plumbed these depths before (at least I hope you have) and remain unconvinced. Fair enough.

Instead of one lock down, debate-ending proof of God’s existence, I would cite the totality of arguments presented in the works of J.P. Moreland (particularly “Scaling the Secular City”), C.S. Lewis, Francis Schaeffer, Alvin Plantinga and William Lane Craig. Craig’s defense of the Kalam Cosmological Argument is not a bad place to start.[/quote]

The Kalam is extremely weak and totally presuppositional.  Most importantly, even if one accepts it, it does not point to a god and definitely not to any specific god.  It can be used to prove naturalism just as poorly as theism.  It’s a terribly weak argument.[/quote]
