How To Debate Non-Christians

[cursedhfy]

Simple, debate Christianity from a sociological perspective.
Where did modern ideas come from, what is the tangible impact that Christianity itself has had on the world.

"How do I talk to someone who doesn't have the same beliefs as me?" IF you're an adult and haven't figured this out then you need way more help than this dude can ever offer.

As a non-Christian, it's more frustrating to debate people of faith. Faith is not objective reasoning. Faith requires belief in the extraordinary without evidence. Christians who want to debate non-Christians start with the assumption that God exists and they shape their arguments around that. From abortion, to LGBT, to human origins, Christians stake their stance on the Bible. They have no argument that's free from religious dogma. How can you debate with someone who doesn't need evidence for their beliefs? A person who blindly believes a claim without evidence won't be dissuaded with evidence against the claim.

People need to quit trying to win debates and speak from a moral 🧭. Its always about twisting words and manipulating the language.

Start with the Declaration of Independence. They were enlightened men, enlightened beyond natural light infused by grace to know the truth. Not so now! Zechariah 11-10. Between the two Popes. Who declares the future? Isaiah 46-8. Those it behooves to speak up fall silent!

This is a bad title. Im not just a non-christian, I’m a hard atheist. As in there is no god, I find the belief in god to be irrational (don’t take offense, most human behavior is irrational). I categorically reject the concept of the supernatural.

I’m pretty much as closely aligned with Klavan as one can be, policy wise. Moreover, there are people that claim to share your faith that are communists. The principals aren’t near as divisive as the application there of.

You don’t debate with non-believers; it’s none of our business. Dust your shoes off and move on. The arrogance to think that we have a responsibility to convince otherwise is putting ourselves on the throne! God sparks the spirit…
