Do atheists here accept the possibility that they will one day fall to their knees and accept Jesus as Lord?

Hey TomThumb and Welcome.

I would recommend your first action on this forum, probably should not be to say ask us to get down own our knees in front of a strange man and "accept".

And their is no possibility because their is no evidence for your religion to be true in anyway. (I assuming your a Christen.)

I have Vista on my PC. It comes with a 'snipping tool' that allows you to select a part of your screen and take a 'photo' of it which you then save to your own PC. You can upload pictures from your PC. There is a tab at the bottom of the text input screen

[attachment=1:2ucffejd]upload.JPG[/attachment:2ucffejd]

You browse to where you saved the file and upload it

You then place the cursor where you want to place the image and click on the Place inline button

[attachment=0:2ucffejd]place.JPG[/attachment:2ucffejd]

And the image will appear.

I've got Vista, but I haven't heard of this 'snipping tool'.

Or Allah for that matter. Fastest growing religion and all that, Christianity will be the minority view at some point if things keep going as they are.

Do you accept the possibility you will realize that Christianity is a collection of fables?

Put some odds on 'possibility' and we may be able to reach a determination.

Why?
For the same reason Jesus refused to worship the devil.

Besides, I'd put the odds of being faced with the possibility at something closer to 1/999999999999

Those odds don't even come into account all the possible gods there could be, first the possibility that there is a god in the first place, then the possibility that the god is the logical contradiction known as YHWH. Not to mention how much the unchanging, eternal, omnipotent, omniscient Christian god has changed over the last 2000 years.

While I have an open mind about BDSM, I definitely wouldn't submit to a man, because I'm a lesbian. So no.

I accept that possibility with the same expectancy that I accept the possibility of one day interacting with the one and only true Santa Clause.  So yes, but really only technically.

As I'd go for odds well longer than the UK lottery (14,000,000/1) I think I'd have to say a relative 'no' then.

No way would I ever fall on my knees and accept the guy who cuts my grass as Lord. He'd think I'd lost my mind! But I'm always happy to have a beer with him.

Actually I would love to meet JC as he was in his 20's and have a bevy with him, assuming I could communicate with him. IF the historical Jesus existed and as a man was anything like his propaganda I think he would be a great guy. Imagine hanging out with him and Mary Magdalene, that would be a threesome worth having  :devil:

I do not entertain the thought. The evidence available for the existence of this god is so extremely low, it makes your question moot.

The OP has been banned to help him stay away from HAF as he indicated was his preference.  Since he's a troll I was worried that he'd have a hard time keeping his word and wanted to give him a bit of help.

(And he was breaking conduct rules anyway)

Nope. I'd fall to my knees to make sure everyone was off guard for the kill shot. That horse thief ought to be hung.

I suggest hanging it on a cross. AND making a fire underneath for safety's sake. And popcorn. We'll need popcorn.  :pop:

Would you accept the possibility that you may have to prostrate yourself to Zeus, or Bumba, or Quetzalcoatl.
