Try reading what I was replying to next time. His “evidence” was the popularity of the bible each year, not total.
So, have YOU got any evidence of a creator? So far all the creationist have been totally lacking in any.
I haven’t seen anyone here claim that conscious entities come from randomness acting upon nothingness. They generally come from thier parents, and every time it is by Natural chemical reactions at no point has a creator deity ever been needed to fill in the gaps of our understanding. They don’t teach about gods in biology, they don’t teach about gods in physics, they don’t teach about god in geology, they don’t teach about god in medicine.

You are a conscious entity.
What is the most likely way for a conscious entity to come into existance? Randomness acting upon nothingness?
Also, you seem to have implied that all supporters of theism are creationists. This is a fale dichotomy.
I, for instance, believe that evolution and chemical abiogenesis are perfectly reasonable explanations of life proccesses and neither preclude specific creation.

The same way snail consiousness did. Evolution.

You know what he meant and you're playing silly/dumb again.
How did human consciousness originate?

Nobody knows how consciousness originates. All we know is that its a property of the brain.
One day we will figure it out. My opinion is that consciousness is an arising property of the brain components and neural structure. However this is an opinion not a fact.

The human brain as it is today is due to millions of years of evolution.
After finding the natural phenomena called evolution (now MES), the discoverer then created the theory set out to explain said phenomena. And do you know who this person was? A Christian.
Your arguing a theory that was created by a Christian.

Which fits right in with everything we know about evolution. If snails were super smart, it would completely disprove every theory we know about evolution.

Snails don't have the ability for critical thinking or expressing emotions. Fail.
Is there some kind of test i can give someone to tell if they are a true christian?

Anyone can claim to be a Christian. There are thousands of people who have never practiced Christianity in their lives and will claim that they are Christian just because their ancestors were Catholic.

Ask them if they believe that Jesus was the Son of God who came to earth to die for their sins so that they might live an eternity with him in heaven.
You ask them if there’s is the right one?

Correct anyone can claim to be a Christian, this particular Christian was a big believer in christian mythology and even did parish work of the local church. He is on records saying that he was never an Atheist.
Ask them if they believe that Jesus was the Son of God who came to earth to die for their sins so that they might live an eternity with him in heaven.
Yet the ones that believe Jesus was God are wrong? How do you know which christian sect of thousands is the correct one?
