My Anti-Evangelism/Witnessing Tract
Declaration of Refutations
Dear Christian Fundamentalist, Evangelist, or Witnesser for Christ,
Hello. You are reading this because you have
attempted to evangelize, convert, or witness to me or the person handing
you this. Well I just wanted you to know that what you are preaching to
me is nothing new to me, for I am a former Evangelist myself with a history
that goes way back. However, since I cannot, nor do I have the time and
energy, to spend hours going into every point, detail, and argument with every
one of you individually, I've listed links to important articles I've written
below which addresses everything you could possibly say about the Christian
faith, gospel, doctrine, and theology, for you to read.
Debunking
Every Argument of Christian Fundamentalists and Evangelists (www.debunkingskeptics.com/Debunking_Christians/Contents.htm)
This book-length
treatise presents and debunks many major arguments by Christian
Evangelists and Apologists such as Josh McDowell and C.S. Lewis, point-by-point
from every angle, with scholarly quotations and citations. It also
includes shocking facts about the Bible and its history that most Christians
don't know. (Note: If you don't have the time to read it, at least
glance over its table of contents to get an idea of the comprehensive vast
scope it covers)
My
Summary Response to Two Christian Missionaries (www.debunkingskeptics.com/Response_Christian_Missionaries.htm)
Though intellectually
articulate, these two Christian missionaries, whom I met in Lithuania and
Moscow, had their bottom-line arguments checkmated from every angle here in
this three page summary outline. It was written and presented to
them after hours of friendly discussion. (Note: This article is
much shorter than the above one, so you should have no trouble finding the
time to read it)
My Rise to Christianity
and Transcendence From It (www.debunkingskeptics.com/Christian_Story.htm)
Finally, here is my
personal story of my turbulent deconversion from Christian fundamentalism and
faith. It is a must read, as both Christians and non-Christians have
found it touching and inspiring, writing me to tell me about it. No one
has regretted reading it.
Conclusion
There you have
it. Everything you could say, every argument you could present, has been
listed and addressed in the articles above. Though most Christians who
receive this will probably not read them, at least glance over the table of
contents of the first one, read the short second one and the personal deconversion story.
Now,
when you do, allow me to make a "prophecy" (as the Bible prophets
supposedly did). I predict that your response, since you can't win on the
issues, will be to undermine and question my motives and character.
That's what they always do in a losing position, which I've seen time and time
again.
I hope this tract does not offend you. But remember
that since you attempted to convert or share your beliefs with me (or
the person who handed you this), I have the right to do the same back to
you. Fair is fair, and karma is equaled by this tract.
Thank you for your time and attention.
Sincerely,
Vinstonas
