Beacuse I am free to give your post the time it deserves.
You wrote;
1)I allege that you are confused, sir.
You have a right to your opinion.

2)Let it be known that I am here to play devil's advocate, as so many philosophers
(or wannabes, in my case) do.

It is so noted.

3)You may ask why I'm doing this
There is nothing new under the sun.

4)Then, you may ask, what purpose does Christianity serve?
If I did not already know, I would not bother you with such a question.

5)I ask you, shalom,
did you know that almost all ancient writers never quoted word for word?

I do have the word of God, and His word is beyond reproach, and so were the writers therin.

As to other ancient writings, I know of not one author concerned with them who has come back from the dead to either deny or affirm your statement.

6)But I am suggesting
to you, shalom, that Christianity clogs the mind and stops it from proving things to
be true/false.

You are not the first, nor shall you be the last to make such a worthless suggestion.
For God hath not given us (Christians) the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.

As to truth evildead;
My Lord Jesus said:
John 8:45-47
45 And because I tell you the truth, ye believe me not.
46 Which of you convinceth me of sin? And if I say the truth, why do ye not believe me?
47 He that is of God heareth God's words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God.

Sincerely,
Shalom...><>
