OK, lets break it down.

This has nothing to do with the argument about lying. It's just Zorba saying I'm being condescending and has no conclusion.

This is the declarative statement with no conclusion.

This is another declarative sentence with no conclusion, whats worse is it has nothing to do with the argument.
An argument is a meaningful declarative sentence known as the premises along with another sentence known as the conclusion.
You only declare but never conclude.
This is constant with faith based thinking, obviously your religious training has made you believe that all one needs to do is declare something and everyone must agree.
You may as well get up on your soapbox and shout "I am the king of fairy land" and then leave the room.

You two are delusional. You will both learn one day that it was you who lied rather than the bible, and your opinion that I made declarative statements with no conclusions is as bogus as your atheistic world view. But I expect nothing more from your ilk; simply put, you lie because you don't have any idea what the truth is, nor do you seek any truth beyond that which fits into your personal world view & comfort zones.

You made a declarative statement with no conclusion yet again. Seriously, why can't you provide a rational statement backing up your declarative statements? Don't you want to debate? Is your argument so weak that you can not defend it?

You still have no idea what a lie actually is, so how can you claim that someone else is telling one?

Bottom line, if you atheists had half a brain between you, you'd be dangerous. Thankfully that will never become an issue though.

No reply on the definition of the word 'liar' then.
Hands up who's surprised on that one.

Yep, we win. He did not lay down a single decent argument about lying. It seems all he can manage to do is preach. I actually feel sorry for him.

Why bother repeating myself? You imbeciles just don't get it so my attempting to actually reason with you as if you're capable of appreciating my argument is just a waste of time.
You will never appreciate that by rejecting, denying and then defending against Gods eternal truth that Jesus is the Christ, you are in fact lying! That is what the verse is saying and your denial of His Lordship does nothing to mitigate your culpability as liars.
1 John 2:22
New International Version (NIV)
22 Who is the liar? It is whoever denies that Jesus is the Christ. Such a person is the antichrist—denying the Father and the Son.
And tell me this assipiter, what have you won here? Only in your small mind do you believe that because two of you agree on some inane and incorrect definition that you actually win something here.

This is not an argument or evidence, and you don't explain why you think this is true. You think this overrides what is a widely accepted use of the word liar. The bible is wrong and so are you.

As Gods word, the bible is self evident and self supporting as an historical and spiritual document. So it is an argument and evidence, you on the other hand have supplied no evidence at all to support your shallow and vapid opinion. As usual though you are completely clueless to that FACT as you attempt to place a different, fallacious and higher standard to me which you can't meet yourself.You are a bad joke assipiter, a true waste of my time since you haven't a clue about universal truth as it exists in reality.
And I notice that neither of you mental midgets can actually defend against the simple truth in this opinion I previously posted.
The gospel/secular worldview you cling to is just one more example of the lies you represent and even defend which proves you have no truth in you and that you are most assuredly the very definition of liars.

just so you know this is my opening statement.
People who deny that jesus is the christ obviously don't believe in your foolish joke of a religion.
I think for it to be an actual lie the person that is lining must believe it's true to begin with and then lie about it.
Then you replied with this.
1 John 2:22
New International Version (NIV)
22 Who is the liar? It is whoever denies that Jesus is the Christ. Such a person is the antichrist—denying the Father and the Son.
You believe that Jesus is the Christ, but if you say that Jesus is not the Christ, you would be lying.
I do not believe that Jesus is the Christ, but if I said that I believe that Jesus is the Christ I would be lying.
I do not believe that Jesus is the Christ so to tell the truth I would have to say I do not believe that Jesus is the Christ.
Your bible is as illogical as you are.

The Bible is only historical in the context that is is old.. Nothing in it has been nor ever will be proven with empirical evidence. A book written by ancient sheep herders , re-written and edited many times over the centuries, only speculation as to whom wrote what , and most of it is either fairy tale or delusional dreams borrowed from earlier cultures and plagiarized to fit the preconceived theology of those very same ancient sheep herders. You have no evidence, why bother trying.

Denying that which does not exist is not a Lie. Telling others they will burn in a pit of fire unless they conform to your delusion IS a lie.
"You're too stupid to be saved." -- EasyRider.
"Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent.
Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent.
Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil?
Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God?"
Epicurus

People lie because of fear. Nothing else. Fear of the consequences of an action that was already done. Lying doesn't change the action, nor the potential consequences, it just attempts to prevent somebody from finding out the truth.
By the way, the results of your poll is 100% yes. Those that said no are all lying
when man tried to understand nature, theism was born
when man tried to understand God, atheism was born

How come when God wrote the Bible he forgot to mention the dinosaurs ?
The claim is often made that the Bible is just a man-made book full of contradictions, and not the inspired word of God that Christians believe it to be. One of the key proponents of this view is best-selling author, Christopher Hitchens.
In 2007, Hitchens wrote God Is Not Great, attempting to discredit all religions. His conclusion? “Religion poisons everything. As well as a menace to civilization, it has become a threat to human survival.”
Hitchens writes, “How can it be proven in one paragraph that this book [Genesis] was written by ignorant men and not by any god? Because man is given ‘dominion’ over all beasts, food and fish. But no dinosaurs or plesiosaurs or pterodactyls are specified, because the authors did not know of their existence.”
Gee! dinosaurs are huge, man! How can God have forgotten to write about them ?
