My point is that Christians are atheists to all of the other 2800 Gods Wink

If you think that is a moot point then you have to ask Christians why do they deny the existence of these other 2800 Gods when there is no more evidence for the existence of their own God ??

I'm getting bored with this. Let's say that a person only worshipped the Christian God but acknowledged that all other gods existed, would that mean that they were not a real Christian? You're making all sorts of general statements about Christians without even looking up Christian in your dictionary. What kind of Lexicophile are you exactly?

Right that's it. No Christmas presents for you Grin

Now all of a sudden the dictionary definitions are relevant when it suits your arguments !! WTF !!

Also how can more than one omnipotent God coexist ?? Christians must deny the existence of other Gods simply because the definitions of these Gods make them conflict with each other such that they cannot coexist together.

In Australia, it's what's known as taking the piss. How much of this did you think was serious?

What's this thing about omnipotent? I didn't say anything about it. Gods don't have to be omnipotent as I've said before. Bacchus was more impotent than anything else. I have an African god that doesn't do anything except sit on a shelf.

BTW - The Last Nail doesn't exist... There's always another bloody nail!

Actually your challenge is to prove that The Last Nail is actually a Christian. Use dictionary references to back up your case.

Yeah, well, yknow... dictionaries!!

"We believe in one god" - the first line of the Nicene Creed...

Anyone who makes that statement is in agreement with all Christians and Christians with them...

The disagreement comes quickly enough after that (the attributes and nature of the one god), but not at the profession of faith in one god itself.

Do you know what Christians generally mean when they say "believe in"?

Within the Christian context, to believe in means to have personal trust and faith in Jesus Christ. It doesn't mean "believe he exists"

Bupp boww... ahh no sorry, What Christians mean when they recite the first line of the Nicene creed is "We believe in one god"... That 's what separated them from Roman polytheists after 325AD as decreed by the Emperor Constantine, to define the Christian faith.

He was a sun worshipper after all, of which, in our solar system, there is only one.

If they think its meaning something else... well then they just ain't Christian folk.

I'm pretty sure you've angered the CLOUD God as well as the RAIN God with that remark Bobby Tongue

NB I never modified anything in your original remark either (I merely pressed the wrong key here lol).

No I haven't - even when clouds & rain appear his light still shines through
