Imagine if math worked the way "believers" say faith in the resurrection works. 2+2=4, but you need spiritual insight from the very notion you're trying to prove in order to see it. I can't just show it to you by laying out the evidence because that would give you an unfair advantage over people who can't count. Holy sh*t. Lawrence Krauss was criticized once for wearing a shirt that said 2+2=5. See, "faith" in math could reasonably lead you to that conclusion. You laugh, but ... When you round numbers, it's easy to see. 2.499 (which rounds down to 2) + 2.499 (which rounds down to 2) = 4.998, which rounds to 5. Math is fun and funny that way. Why do I bring it up? Because if I'm going to expect you to believe something absurd, I'm going to respect your intelligence enough to explain it to you in terms that can't be disputed. I'm going to give you the evidence, ESPECIALLY IF YOUR ETERNAL DESTINY IS AT STAKE!!! Krauss DID wear a shirt that said 2+2=5. It also said "for large enough values of 2," but his critics like to leave that part out. TLC wants people to think I left out his context, when his context consists entirely of accepting, as evidence, sh*t no one can prove. You need to be open to the holy spirit to accept the resurrection. Well, no sh*t. That's the point, isn't it. The evidence won't lead you there, but if you'll just open your mind to "not evidence," you'll see it clearly. DUH! EVERY. RELIGION. MAKES. THE. SAME. CASE. It's circular reasoning. You have to assume that which you are trying to prove in order to prove that which you are assuming. That's not evidence. That's abandoning your mental faculties, which religion PRAISES at the expense of intelligence, which is indicated by words like "so-called" intellectuals or by putting words like "intellectuals" in quotes to denigrate them [by implying they are not open to the things of the spirit]. Honestly, if I were an intelligent Christian, I would be insulted at the insinuation. You were not taken out of context, TLC. Your argument was rebutted and refuted. Now stop lying about me. Engage my arguments, if you have a counterargument. "You have to take it on faith" is not a counterargument. It's an admission the facts, evidence and truth are not on your side.
