This is going to be good. If the vatican cannot prove using catholic documents from thier libraries to lend credibility to what we as Christians believe and know to be true from an experiential stand point then where does that leave us? If they do prove it, will a militant atheist believe anyway.
Signor Cascioli, author of a book called The Fable of Christ, began legal proceedings against Father Righi three years ago after the priest denounced Signor Cascioli in the parish newsletter for questioning Christ’s historical existence.
Atheist to his "non-religion" that really is a religion of hate and doubt.

I guess you guys didn't read the article very closely and just wanted to stalk my threads to try and discredit me...lol. You are funny.
Seems I was right on the money and you are shown again to be stalkers. He is in fact a militant atheist by account of the article not me. So you can go find another thread to stalk guys.
Mods a little help here?

This should be a riot; to see how the priest attempts to wiggle out of this one. All I can think of is him taking the stand, holding up the shroud of Turin, and shrugging slightly as to say - "This is the best I got. See I am right, so there, hmph". The next chapter in this story can't come soon enough.
As to the original poster's comments about atheology, well, it's a odd you feel the need to cast aside the badge of tolerance that Christianity 'supposedly' bears and speak ill of something which you apparently have not delved into.

Atheist to his "non-religion" that really is a religion of hate and doubt
My brother is a hard core atheist and I had a girl friend who was agnostic. They both still are. I even stretched out on a limb here on this one by bringing out this before any of the haters. I am as interested to see if this guy can prove or the other guy disprove he may not have to in light of science saying the proof of an absence does not mean something exists (or something like that).
Again I did not state the guy was a militant atheist the article did...jeez y'know this is tired banter find something of substance to talk about. Like I dunno that article and not me and my thought. Y'know factual stuff that can be proved thus far or things that have been disproved regarding the article.
And it is stalking if you are in every instance and attacking anything not to your liking. I haven't done this but clearly you have. As for calling on assistance from a mod, would you just rather I track you down personally and ask you to stop?

No, but YOU in your post called the atheists out by proclaiming the “ism” one of hate and doubt (not the article, but your own words). Hence, the subsequent discussion. There are militant atheists, just as there are militant Christians. (such as those who bomb abortion clinics in the name of God, etc.) No religion is defined by its militants, and all seem to have their bad apples.

Why do you resent atheists so?

There was no violation of the Terms and Conditions by any member responding. Though the “I track you down personally” comment could be deemed a threat. Would you REALLY do so, over a disagreement on an anonymous discussion board?

As long as members attack each other’s arguments and positions vs. personal attacks, it is not our place as moderators to stifle such discussion. Indeed, that is why we are here. Personally, I learn more from those I disagree with, then those who agree, as they force me to take a closer look and defend my position.

NO FOAM AT THE MOUTH ATHEIST is going to believe no matter what you say. See what I am saying here? It is really funny.

Did I miss something between your post and mine? Where did I paint you as being an atheist?
