that it would convince him to become an atheist?

HEYOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

See: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AiMvN...

Like Iran or Saudi Arabia where the odds of becoming Christian are extremely low?

God is essentially condemning certain individuals to go to hell based on where they were born which is beyond their control.

Can a Christian give a rational response to this?

(preferably without any B.S. about free will because we all know that where you are born and how you are raised has a huge effect on what religion you are and those are both beyond your control)

Well the Greeks said Zeus was real and if he wasn't then there would be no Greek religion. Not that I'm a Greek religious fanatic or anything but I'm just saying.

Where did humanity's state of sin originate from?

The bible clearly says that it's the result of Adam and Eve. Do you believe in evolution AND adam and eve?

Jesus --> Sacrifice to atone for humanity's state of sin

Humanity's state of sin --> resulted from the Fall of Man

Fall of Man --> consequence of Adam and Eve's disobedience to god

So, to recap:

If you believe that Jesus's sacrifice was necessary, then you also believe in the whole Adam and Eve story which directly contradicts evolutionary theory.

How the hell can you explain this logical inconsistency?

Personally I take this as an insult!

doesn't that mean he forced free will upon us?

Do I have no other choice then to have free will?

does that condemn them to hell even though their mental illness is the result of a chemical imbalance in their brain that is beyond their control?

does that condemn them to hell even though their mental illness is the result of a chemical imbalance in their brain that is beyond their control?

How can a Christian say that free will exists?

If they have non-christian friends and family who they know will be in hell?

Can you explain to me your hypothesis as to why Human Chromosome #2 contains a vestigial centromere and multiple sub-telomeric duplications?

The theory of evolution would postulate that this is the result of an ancestral ape chromosome fusion event. This explanation would additionally explain why humans have 2 less chromosomes than the other great apes.

So...what is the creationist explanation?

A 6-story tall Jesus statue in Ohio was struck by lighting on Monday and burned to the ground.

What further evidence do Christians require that will convince them that the Almighty Zeus is pissed off at them?
