While many of the same arguments you make have been made individually here in various posts, it is quite refreshing to see them all in one setting.
Unfortunately, so much of what passes for debate here is so besotted with personal emotion that what you cite will not be examined to expose truth or error but through the lens of petty offence, “it offends me, therefore it's false”, so common on these threads.
I am sure you have spent some time reading to posts on FR, (lurking) before signing on and will recognize that a well reasoned position is often met with simple minded denial rather than refutation, blandly ignorant misrepresentation, and, if all else fails, assumption of a pretense of indifference to the validity of the evidence.

Because some posters take any wounding to their favored doctrine as a personal attack they feel free to return what they see as acceptable turn about.
I hope you have a boiler plate hide.

Your very interesting and informative post would be hard to equal, though I hope you will have a go at it again.

Welcome!

Yes, having conversed a bit on other forums, I am familiar with all kinds of responses.

Many of them emotional, lacking any sustantiation.

Sinners reject the Gospel for many reasons. They think it foolish

1 Cor 1:18 For the word of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.
