Amazing how sarcasm seems to often be the way we deal with those things that we are secretly afraid of, if we were not afraid we would be able to present a logical argument???????

I think the sarcasm comes because most non christians have explained thier lack of belief many times over aleady, and to us christianity just seems so rediculous, and the more fervent the christian the more rediculous they appear. Plus, I could lay out of long and logical refutation of christianity, but it's a waste of time. If someone already believes then thier already gone from the world of reality and logic and reason will have no effect.

I would be very interested to read what you have to say. Sometimes it is hard to see the forest from the trees and hearing someone else's thought out viewpoint would be very interesting.

I think Kiwiboy has written extensively on the topic on other threads. But it doesn't matter how much sense he makes, Bible-thumpers never want to open their eyes.
