@Metrozee9000 @AtheistTakes Glad I could be of some assistance! I can relate with your frustration with people like that. We're called to give gentle answers, not insults. I'm by no means perfect in this regard. I need correction and repentance just as much as they do. God bless, Metroz! 🙏🏻

@KylesAfro @AtheistTakes Please, don't apologize, you're probably one of the first to give me a genuine and somewhat satisfactory answer to this. At this point, I usually start getting called names, which, unlike your "long-winded answer", doesn't really help me understand Christianity. So thank you !

Average atheist understanding of the Bible

Normalize saying "I'm sorry" to people who announce they're pregnant Submitted by @dj_latigo_

@Metrozee9000 @AtheistTakes With that in mind, Catholic and Orthodox denominations agree about Jesus. The Gospel is our middle ground, the reason we're called Christians. Don't let me or the random missionary choose for you. Seek the truth in the gospel for yourself. Sorry again for being so long-winded!

@KylesAfro @AtheistTakes Thanks for your candor, it's appreciated but it doesn't really answer my original question: if I were to convert to Christianity, which denomination should I choose and why ? I don't just want the one of the first missionaries who gets to me, I want the truth ! Which is it ?

@Metrozee9000 @AtheistTakes Personally, I'm protestant. Mine is not superior to any other denomination and mine is not the correct or perfect one. I just disagree with doctrines from others. For example, I don't believe in praying to Mary and I don't believe she was sinless. Neither was in the gospels.

@Metrozee9000 @AtheistTakes No worries! You're right, I apologize. Ultimately, Jesus is the truth, your denomination doesn't matter and the choice is yours to make. You can even choose to be non-denominational if you'd rather not pick. The primary reason these denominations exist is due to disagreements.

@JinxtheWott @AtheistTakes It's ultimately your responsibility to check it before you hit send. Own your mistakes. God bless! 🙏🏻

@KylesAfro @AtheistTakes You mean because my phone miscorrected me? Okay...

@JinxtheWott @AtheistTakes Like I said, none of these others were defined by that name, Yaweh was. Willard Carroll Smith II is indeed more specific. But, when only one has the name, you're narrowed down to one. That's why it's important to recognize the use of proper nouns.

@KylesAfro @AtheistTakes Making assumptions isn't knowing. If I give you the full name of someone, let's say Will Smith, you don't "know" who I'm talking about. You assume who I'm talking about

@JinxtheWott @AtheistTakes 👍

@KylesAfro @AtheistTakes And yes, I assumed you were from America based on what you've said and your profile pic

@Metrozee9000 @AtheistTakes Finally, if you're claiming superiority over another and reject correction, you're not Christian. We're all made in the image of God and we're not better than our neighbors. All have sinned and fallen short, but Christ paid the price for us so we could be saved.

@KylesAfro @AtheistTakes Which Christians got it right then ? Is it the Catholics ? The Protestant ? The Orthodox ? The Mormons ? What makes your brand of Christianity the right one rather than just yet another heresy ? I'm agnostic so I genuinely want to know why this one and not another.

@Metrozee9000 @AtheistTakes Second, to be considered Christian, one must be a follower, believer and imitator of Christ and His teachings and resurrection. It's where the name came from: "christianós" is Greek for "little Christ." If your brand doesn't resemble that, it's not Christian.

@Metrozee9000 @AtheistTakes There's a lot to unpack in this, but I'd like to give you the best answer I can give. Please forgive my winded answer. First, a clear up of a misconception. Mormons aren't Christians. They like to call themselves Christians, but then deny the Trinity.

@JinxtheWott @AtheistTakes Cool, so am I. I also know that "America" is a proper noun so the "A" is capitalized. You hide behind a polytheistic religion to then make your point, which falters the second you realize your whole argument stands on a technicality and not fact.

@KylesAfro @AtheistTakes I'm from america, so my assumption would be the abrehamic God. But in other countries there are more popular religions, like Hinduism, which technically is monotheistic as they follow one God that was reincarnated multiple times

@JinxtheWott @AtheistTakes And yet when I refer to God, you know who I'm talking about because none of these others were defined by that name, Yaweh was.

@KylesAfro @AtheistTakes There are also people who don't fall into any major religion like pagans, who are often polytheistic. They may follow Hellenism, Old Norse, or even Ancient Celtic

@JinxtheWott @AtheistTakes Yet when you look at the name "The God of Abraham," the "G" is capitalized. Clarifying to anyone who reads the name, that it is a proper noun. You blatantly got it wrong in an attempt to validate your point.

@KylesAfro @AtheistTakes God can be a name and title, yes. But you could easily just say "The Christian god", "The god of Abraham", literally anything to clarify.

@OverClockLasor @AtheistTakes Good talk! God bless! 🙏🏻

@OverClockLasor @AtheistTakes The fact you didn't capitalize the "V" further proves the point you don't understand what I mean when I say it's a proper noun.

@JinxtheWott @AtheistTakes The fact you narrowed it down to Abrahamic shows you narrowed it down to one. You can branch the argument further to what version you're speaking of, which is not the argument being presented here in this comic.

@KylesAfro @AtheistTakes It narrows it to one but not which one. Different gods have different names, even the abrehamic God has a name we just don't say it as it's considered disrespectful. Even tho I'm not Christian I still try to be respectful tho

@Alanfx__ @r_graus The English language.

@KylesAfro @r_graus Who capitalized it?

Which god? There have been over 3000 of them.
