Well said Sheldon, seen that a lot on here too!

That and, "we're not discussing that here, we will have to start a new thread for that!"

That's usually the go to when a theists is caught with their pants down.

"There can be no forgiveness without cost."

Probably posted already but didn't see it when the thought jumped into me mind.

"Your taking it out of context.". And not realizing they do same d*mn thing all the time themselves.

Variants of "Without (belief in) god, there'd be no reason to be moral".

"Jesus loves you!"

"It's a miracle!"

I wouldn't say I have any favourite theist quotes, rather a list of most frequently reappearing theist canards. Whether these elicit amusement, the "oh no, not again" response, or a desire to introduce the perpetrator to some interesting uses for a 15 pound sledgehammer and a set of jump leads, varies from canard to canard. But, in general, the canards that exhibit lower levels of malignancy tend to be the ones that elicit the most amusement.

The feeble "You're taking it out of context" canard, is, of course, dealt with succinctly by replying "If so, please provide the correct context, in detail, and why this context you assert to be the correct one is indeed as you assert". I suspect deployment of this response will result in a nice histogram of replies, with outright evasion and bailing out of the thread being a popular supernaturalist choice, closely followed by various examples of specious apologetic fabrications, displaying the tell-tale signs of having been rectally extracted, with no thought given to whether or not the resulting discoursive bubble wrap is consistent with past assertions by the authors thereof.

Much more malignant, of course, are the well-poisoning assertions, the tiresome and duplicitous assertion about Hitler and Stalin being atheists, being one that occupies a special position in my league table of flaming pitchfork worthy instances of egregious malfeasance. That one, whenever it presents it venomous and pustular visage in my discoursive field of vision, provides an occasion to reach for the chlorine trifluoride flamethrower and a full suite of 16 inch naval guns loaded with Katies. I regard every pedlar of that particular canard with truly pyroclastic levels of scorn and derision, and it was the resurrection of this toxic dreck, that led to the recently documented post-diabetric medication artillery bombardment of the sub-prokaryote troll who posted it. Make no mistake, this canard is probably the shining example of a piece of fulminating mendacity worthy of a World War III level response. Pedlars of this should be immolated on sight.

As for the "only a theory" canard, well, I produced my own graphic response to this, which I duly attach to this post. Enjoy.

"There is loads of contemporary evidence of Jesus's life."

Just remembered this one....god allows suffering so that we can appreciate happiness.

"There was plenty of room. You don't seriously think that they'd have taken fully grown Dinosaurs."

"If you had a personal relationship with our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ like I do, then you would understand."

Jesus loves you, and to prove it, if you have any doubts or pick the wrong religion or version of the right religion, he will torture you after you die, forever.

"You don't know God."

Well...neither do they!
