How many Christians have "seen the light" due to questions like the one below?

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=200809...

Update:

"I can see why you are the top contributor. Gibberish replies seemed to get you points too"

Yeah... gibberish gets a 17-18% best answer rating.

Update 2:

I'm sorry I didn't make the question clear.

I guess it should have read as follows:

How many Christians ORIGINALLY "seen the light" due to questions liek the one below.

The point is people claim this type of question is a way of "winning souls"... I just want to know who converted that way.

I have a theory that most people who use that type of questioning were "born" into a religion, not converted to it... and think they are doing a service to humanity by asking it...

You are right, I really don't like... on a daily basis, being told I'm going to have to account for my life to a deity<belief system> I don't even believe in.

Yes, that is offensive to me. Just as offensive as asking complete strangers about their private parts.

    You REALLY didn't like that question, did you?

    The answer is... none. No ones mind changes based on evidence they're provided here one way or the other (or questions about their landing pad.) The only time people change is when they're ready to change and typically the only value the constant bickering and tossing of facts and biblical verses here has is for the person who is seeking and finds bits of information of value to him or herself along the way.

    Not due to anything in R&S - but - through study. Things like that simply confirm some of my observations though...

    Wow, I think you may need some medication based upon your answer. We need people to be calm here in R&S the more calm people the better off we are! =)

    Meaning what, exactly? Most of us have already contemplated that question.
