It's Important To Keep One's Cool When Defending Biblical Creationism!
It's a major challenge to be facing skeptics and atheists especially when it comes to the creation vs. evolution discussion. For the creationist, a single piece of skull is evidence for creation and for the evolutionist, a single piece of skull is evidence for evolution. While I have observed how atheists can be very rude and insensitive to their opponents (while being very touchy individuals themselves), however it's never easy to keep your cool especially if you are near the children of Satan. If I couldn't stand the bad attitude of Roman Catholic apologists, I don't expect any better from an atheist. When I read their blogs, they are so full of cursing and bitterness that I choose to avert mine eyes and these days, I won't even comment on their blogs because debating with them is useless.
Knowledge about science is certainly a must for every Christian because God is the Author of science. I encourage them to deeply study scientific facts that would disprove evolution. It must be remembered that evolutionists tend to harden themselves in the face of evidence. If you read through atheist blogs, most of them choose to do Ad Hominen attacks on Christians rather than the argument. For these stubborn atheists, I cannot deny that the more I read their arguments the more silly they become and the more laced they are with insults. It's useless to have lots of knowledge but you are stubborn and quarrelsome because as 1 Corinthians 13:2 says that without love, knowledge is nothing.
A lot of atheists (not all) can be very stubborn and not to mention childish and arrogant. You cannot deny how many of them are very arrogant. They think they are smarter than everyone, they think that everyone who doesn't agree with them are stupid and that if you refuse to argue with them, it's because you are stupid. Even if Christians are saved people but there is still the old nature to deal with even if there is a change of lifestyle. Though Christians do not consistently fall away but there are times they fall away. In the debate against atheists, it's very easy to lose your cool rather than to keep it. It also ruins one's testimony to use physical force plus it's not even a Christian value to do so. While Christians are told to reject heresy but they are not commanded to beat up the heretic.
