How to argue?

My, my, my.  Seems that I hooked the Big Fish first pop out of the box.

So Matt,  let's review:

So, realizing that it was impossible to argue from a position of logic and
reason, I brushed up on my Biblical knowledge.  Having re-read the "good
book" cover to cover in six different translations, and reading some extra
biblical works, I prepared myself to pursue them into the depths of their
own quagmire.  I had them beat hands down when it came to quoting
conflicting scripture.  I had memorized many of the famous discrepancies
and errors in their book.  Woe be it to the next unsuspecting Christian who
dared to cross me.

Matt, if you can't recognize tongue-in-cheek when you see it, it is clear
to me why you can't recognize foot-in-mouth in other instances.

I don't see any question worth answering. Just another errantist with an
over-inflated egotistical opinion of themselves and their abilities. When you
read the seventh translation see if you get hold of a Bible intended for
adults
and not kids.

So my question:  How does one argue or respond to these ala cartes?  They
are so loose and floppy that they will not commit to anything.  I would
much rather argue with a hardcore, fire and brimstone "Bible banger" than
these spineless creatures.

Matt, the question is above.  Restated, when so called Christians are so
unsure of their own beliefs that they can not even state their own
position, how does one:
1) Point out the absurdity of their statements
2) Hold any kind of intelligent conversation with them

Big yuk factor on the kid version statement.  Really got me on that one!
So, could someone of your unfathomable knowledge suggest something other
than the KJV, NASB, NIV, Amplified, RSV, and YLT?  

BTW, I have a few more on order and I would like to be sure that they have
your "stamp of approval" on them.
