Keyplus - “... The only reason I want a face to face debate with Birdie is that whatever he has said on this tread and much much more have been dealt by me. I have given him so many detailed answers spanning over more than 100 posts on few threads but end result is that he always says that I have not answered his questions...”
More lies. Your so called 'detailed answers' are nothing of the sort. If they are not flat-out insults or just question piled upon further question then they are often little more than flimsy excuses based on spurious evidence. Take your latest post [21:54 Tue 20th Mar 2012] for instance. In it you provide the following link...

As a quick test of this website's honesty, I clicked on the link called, “The 70 or 72 virgins in Islamic Paradise is actually supported in the Bible.”. I was sent to another page which stated, “Also, Jesus in Matthew 17, below, said that all of the believers will have 100 times the wives, harems, sisters and brothers in Heaven!”.
Wow! That's quite amazing. So I scrolled down and found the reference which stated that in Matthew 17, Verse 29 it says, “And every one that hath forsaken houses, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my name's sake, shall receive an hundredfold, and shall inherit everlasting life.”
According to all the references I can find, the above quote from Matthew 17:29 is essentially accurate. So does that mean that the Bible is saying that men (obviously!) are given multiple virgins in Heaven?
Of course it doesn't. To suggest otherwise is a blatant and transparent lie. I'm no lover of Christianity or the Bible but I can clearly see what Matthew 17:29 is saying. It is not saying that you literally get 100 wives in Heaven (and certainly virgins are not mentioned unless you perversely include the children). Do you think that this Biblical passage is literally suggesting that in Heaven you get 100 times the amount of houses, brother, sisters, fathers, mothers, children and fields [lands] that you had on Earth? It is utterly absurd to read that passage and reach that conclusion. It is merely saying that life in Heaven will be a hundred times better (relatively speaking) than it is on the Earth. There is no specific mention of virgins or multiple wives.
But that's ludicrous conclusion that the “Answering Christianity” website has reached.
As Naomi rightly states, if you stop reading pathetically misleading websites such as the one you linked and actually try engaging your brain you might actually learn something of value rather than swallowing someone else's moronic interpretations of religious scripture.
Feel free to ignore this post.
