“I’ve noticed that Atheists like to play the “prove it” game. They use this game to shift the burden of spiritual responsibility to God off of themselves, trying to replace it with a burden of proof for the Christian. ”
This bit of nonsense came from this blog. Christians often don’t think their arguments through.
we can have this by just changing a couple of words: “I’ve noticed that Christians like to play the “prove it” game. They use this game to shift the burden of spiritual responsibility to Ahura Mazda off of themselves, trying to replace it with a burden of proof for the believers.” This, of course, can have any other god put in place of Jason’s personal version of the Christian god, even other versions of the Christian god.
He goes on “God has proven Jesus is our Lord and Savior to everyone who hears the Gospel:” Hmmm, I’ve heard the gospel and nothing was proven to me. What the gospels, and the rest of the bible, happen to be are claims, not proof. A book that says it is true is not evidence for that book being true. Other holy books make the same claim and gosh, Jason, doesn’t blindly believe them. Tsk.
Then we have this “Because let’s be honest, there is no naturalistic argument that proves Jesus rose from the dead. At best the historical evidence shows that the resurrection of Christ is more likely than not, but this does not meet the standard of proof the Atheist is asking for. God will never allow a naturalistic argument to prove the resurrection of Jesus, because then people would not have to turn to God from their heart. ”
Hmmm, other Christians say that this god does want a naturalistic argument. Such a shame, contradicting Christians. At least Jason admits that his nonsense is just as silly as any other religions, and that he must make baseless claims for it too. The historical evidence shows that the resurrection of Christ is not likely, though there might be some evidence for a crazy Jew who thought he was the messiah, not what Jason claims to worship.
Poor Jason, he whines about evidence, but then demands the same thing from other religions he doesn’t believe in.
“I could close this post out with links to articles or videos presenting the historical evidence for the resurrection of Christ, but I’m not going to do that. ”
He doesn’t do that because he knows they fail and he doesn’t want to be held responsible for failed arguments. Such a coward, he wants to address atheists, but is too afraid of having comments where they can reply to him. Yet one more failed apologist for this god which points to two possibilities:
This god needs a better HR staff.
This god is imaginary.
Club Schadenfreude 
On his about page he says his aim is to reach out to atheists yet I notice he has limited posts open for comments.
He is yet another vacuous ignorant Nob.

If his aim is to reach out to atheists, and he’s in communication with an all-powerful god, then why hasn’t he shown up at my blog to convert me? Especially, why hasn’t he shown up at my blog and opened his first comment with my passcode? An all-knowing god should be able to tell him what it is. If he could do that, I’d listen to everything he had to say. I guess, if there’s a “true messenger” from his god, it isn’t him.
I think he just wants to be able to whine to the other people in his bubble about what meaniepants those atheists are, without actually having to engage any of us. Just the usual martyrbation.

Been seeing quite a lot of people recently who don’t seem to understand the fundamentals of the burden of proof. Could it be that apologists are getting dumber, or is this a fresh crop of Mothers-Milk Atheist-Slayers?

hard to tell. I see he’s must have responded to me since I got a pingback for this blog post. From what I’ve seen, I’d lay bets that a lot of would-be atheist slayers have abandoned their nonsense since it’s obvious their religion and god have failed thanks to this virus. It’s only the less able ones that are still hanging on.

“Christians often don’t think their arguments through.”
Why think things thru? All the thinking has been done for them. Just pop over to the apologetics websites and if you don’t believe them, then you must be lying, not them. God has revealed himself to everyone personally. If you don’t believe Him, you must be lying, not them or Him.
It a big confidence game. The Eternal Ponzi Scheme. They don’t have evidence or proof, so they attack those who request it and call them liars and reprobate for doing so.
Not worth even arguing with them anymore.

well, I find it useful to stand up against liars no matter what. Alas, I’ve been kicked off of FB for a month, but I do have a lot of gathered stupidity to show on my blog.

I hurt Christian feelings when I show them to be liars and incompetent twits. When they are cornered, make use of the censoring they so bitterly complain about otherwise.
