Catholic Christianity's beliefs are false

1. Being born of a virgin is for sure absurd/unrealistic (I'm saying it's too hard to believe in), especially how she was impregnated by the undefinable "Holy Spirit" which has no proof that it even exists. I'm aware Catholics believe it's a miracle, but why believe in a miracle without sufficient evidence other than it being in a questionable book. 2. The evil coming from Satan was an example. All the different defenses actually tell me people have all kinds of theories becuase they have no idea what they're talking about, but just want to be right. None of them have evidence, and if so, tell me! If people don't know what they are talking about when it comes to their religion, does it not give the vibe that the people might be overall wrong? 3. Think of it like this: You and I are sitting at a table with a huge stack of cards, each one representing a religion and what their beliefs are. I ask you all of your reasons why you think each religion is wrong. Eventually you would notice a lot of the arguments are reusable. Once we've gone through the stack there is one left- Catholicism. I'm sure almost all the arguments you said against other religions sould work well against Cahtolicism as well. I guess the moral is that Christianity is no better than anything else, but they are convinced they are right and others are wrong (at least most of them). 4. I don't know what to think about that quote because I've only heard that he was never documented despite all his "miracles" (would have been one of my arguments). Are you sure that is credible? Here are mine for him not existing: I think that Jesus was based on Joseph in the Old Testament- Please read this: ( http://near-death.com... ). Also, the born on December 25th, walk on water, born of a virgin things were unoriginal; there were other gods before Jesus that apparently did that, and are now considered myths. 5. So I take it you are a literalist. In fact, this is the approach I've heard from only reasonable Catholics, and all teachers at my Jesuit school. If you are a literalist, explain to me the two creation stories. 6. You can't be serious. I can easily say zero people in the world deserve to suffer FOREVER, regardless of what you did in your lifetime- especially if you masturbated once when you were a teenager (mortal sin) or you are a single mother that got a divorce because of a bad relationship. Please don't tell me you think people deserve to suffer for eternity, especially for making human mistakes. 7. Fair enough, then give me my extraordinary evidence that God even exists. 8. Yes, but you can't just assume it is supposed to be taken allegorically just because it doesn't make sense literally. And no, they don't "clearly" exist. Give me an example of when there is a "clear" allegory in the Bible, and how you know it's supposed to be an allegory. The allegorical/contextualist view very much exists today! 9. I've realized this wasn't worth including. It was intended as a response to people that say you can't disprove god, but you may say that. Disregard this. 10. The fact that there are various defenses tell me people aren't sure what to think, and that what they think has no evidence. I totally agree we don't have all the answers, that's the agnostic side of me. Religion isn't the only cause of good morals you know. And let's say it is, does that at all prove Catholics right? No, the debate is not about that. 11. Where is your response to this?
