    That is a great quote. I am going to use that next time.

  2. Bruce Williams Says:

    Christians believe in the Bible because it comes from God. They believe in God because the Bible says he exists. What a perfect example of a circular argument.

    Hey some books are worth believing in or at the very least are more credible than others. You have to exercise some judgment when it comes to believing which book.

    For instance: I believe Harry Potter is a doctor in Framingham MA. I believe this because a book tells me so. The Book? The Yellow Pages.

    Personally, I believe in unicorns because a very special little book tells me.

    And I believe in natural selection because a special book that talks about it has never been contradicted by any evidence…
