Reading Zig Forums thread's is a good reminder for someone like me who came from a skepticist household that religious people aren't idiots just because "they believe in something that doesn't exist".
And then I read something like this and I'm reminded that detestable people come from all walks of life, including ones that promote respect.

Christianity isnt "a walk of life". There is a single narrow door, and it doesnt respect what is perverse.
You are a good reminder of the damage that atheism has done to the world.

Nothing says "single narrow door" like ~18 groups all with differing interpretations on what christianity represents.

I used to debate them in the past, but I usually don't bother anymore. It's better to invite them to church, maybe share your reasons for believing in God if they ask, and leave it at that. That should be without question. When I was agnostic in my teens, I still considered myself "conservative", but became accepting of sodomy, gay marriage, abortion, etc.. Very scary to think back on. The only "morals" most atheists have are "I hate pedophiles and animal abusers", and even then that's going to change over time as mainstream culture conditions them to be welcoming of pedophiles and bestiality. I suppose that brings us to your second line: Only the most delusional person would argue that a society that lives according to the teachings of the Bible is no more moral than a society that lives according to their own definitions of morality.

Because atheists don't accept the proofs Christians present, same as any other difference of theory.
Because if God isn't real then all morality is subjective. Most atheists today think that Christians are immoral for not approving of fag marriage. You can present the statistics on pedophilia, promiscuity, and STDs to them but they act all offended and say "not all fags" when you do. How can I prove them wrong in matters of morality without first proving the existence of God? There's just no way to do it, because without the basis for an objective morality then morals are just determined by whatever "feels" good.

God is not some tool to be used by you or others. Repent and accept Christ as your Lord and Saviour.
Because it is idolatrous to replace God with the benefits he provides.
Btw we did this as a society with secularism. We took all the goodies that our knowledge of God gave us and excluded God from them. This removes the moral absolutum of all morals. They are no longer imperatives they are just a "life for dummies" self-help book.
As such they can be relativized away. Morality is a crutch and its simply preference when its divorces from God, hence proud sluts and the universal celebration of abortion.
