Do you believe atheists are more logical or scientific than people who have a systematic moral code?

We've been here before.

What is more logical Arlon? To believe something based on positive evidence or something without? Remember how all you came up with last time was the Argument from Popularity and the God of the Gaps? We do.

Terrorists have a self-professed 'systematic moral code' very often according to their religious beliefs, do they not?

Remember when I called the bluff and said don't count Christianity as a religion?

Some bluff. Hey, I know: is that when you argue with dictionaries 'and win again'?

BrE /ˌkrɪstiˈænəti/ ; NAmE /ˌkrɪstiˈænəti/the religion that is based on the teachings of Jesus Christ and the belief that he was the son of God. Oxford Collocations Dictionary.

Definition of Christianity. 1 : the religion derived from Jesus Christ, based on the Bible as sacred scripture, and professed by Eastern, Roman Catholic, and Protestant bodies. 2 : conformity to the Christian religion. 3 : the practice of Christianity.

Christianity | Definition of Christianity by Merriam-Webster

Remember how once I challenged you to provide one reference work which denied Christianity was a religion and, oddly, you could not? I do.

Remember how all the actual religions not counting Christianity have lower divorce rates, earn more income and are better educated? Remember that now? Remember when we said atheists and Christians are just two sides of the same bad coin?

Is that an actual true Scottish religion?

For someone who believes the world was created supernaturally upon which god made life and has admitted to praying you certainly seem down on Christianity for some reason, deny it is a religion and all. You could almost be one of those 'theophobes' CJGCool is obsessed with...LOL

Remember how you said how all definitions (especially yours) are arbitrary? We do. And how you later said that means definitions are not necessarily right? What have you been doing here but parading a lot of preferred interpretations and suggesting arbitrary definitions.?

Evasions will be noted.

You are obviously far too lost in the jungle of communications to make a point. You have never learned that you can't prove things with a dictionary. It doesn't matter what you call it. You may call Christianity a "religion" if you like. There are many and varied definitions of religion. Please do not miss the point though. The point is that they are substantially different from every other religion, and curiously compare more to atheists. That is the point that matters. You can call them roofing nails if you like and it wouldn't change any of their properties.
