I don't wish to seem rude for going anonymous strictly to comment on your blog, but my situation in life prevents me from being able to throw my identity around freely. I do feel you are entitled to know a little bit about me as I will be around a lot the next month.
Things You Can Know About Me:
I really am a 17 year old girl.
I am an 11th grade homeschooler. (Though I am taking college courses at the moment and plan to CLEP most of my degree before I graduate.)
As I said earlier, I have a brother named Leo. I am a born again Christian. I believe every word of the Holy Bible is inspired, or God-breathed. I believe in a literal 7 day creation. I believe science proves this.
I have studied philosophy. I have read quite a bit of atheist writing. I am especially fascinated by Richard Dawkins. (Though, I must admit, he lost so much credibility when he mentioned aliens.. And no, I know he was not joking.) I have also been to atheist run websites and read their forums. Several times, actually. While you are the first atheist I have decided to actually respond to online, you are not the first I have encountered in my lifetime. I have several atheist and Catholic acquaintances, and I do understand where you are coming from. I am very impressed with your eloquent way of putting the arguments that you have learned within the past three years. I will only be around until March 20th, and then I will disappear from the internet and you will no longer have to bother with me.
My goal is not to convert you to Christianity. My goal is to explain why what I believe contradicts what you believe, and why I believe my beliefs to be true. I believe you are going to do great things someday, and I hope to help make sure you are presented with all the facts of God before you do fully turn your back on Him.
And that is all you need know.
Until later,
~That 17 year old girl~
