Jesus, who gives a shit about this? Just believe whatever the hell you want and extend others the same courtesy.And besides, if you wanted to convert people to your faith, posting a coincidence with a sound logical explanation isn't the way to do it.

Not really, it's just that some of them like to be zealots. I get along with a lot of religious people because it's just not a topic we talk about in casual conversation in this country.

But most of the actual Christians I meet IRL hardly even bring up their faith. And while I definitely agree with the concept of atheism, atheists are usually a lot more annoying than Christians.

Not sure if this is a troll thread, but have you ever tried to burn a closed book, especially one as thick and with a cover such as the bible? Because there's no circulating air and heat in between the pages to fuel the fire, you will only succeed in burning the cover and edges of the paper before the fire wears off. It's a well known fact that after housefires, thicker books are generally one of the few things that can be retrieved afterwards.Here's a good read on it.And here's a video showing a guy trying to deliberately burn a bible and repeatedly pouring lighter fluid on it with absolutely no success at getting the book to burn until he opened them up and stacked them.YouTube
God leaves signs of faith all over. If you guys choose not to see them, that's on you. I forgive you, you better just hope God does too.
