Atheists like to claim intellectual superiority, yet when attempting to make an argument against Christianity, they always fall short. While claiming to be the pinnacle of learned men, they lose all sense of logic, context, reading comprehension, and deductive reasoning when they erroneously create arguments in opposition to Christianity. If you want to reject God, so be it, but at least do it on the basis of what the bible actually teaches and not what you read on the internet.
Read, study, understand. Leave your pride and arrogance at the door. Context is a thing and its wonderful.
Edit: Let's keep this going, guys! And thank you to all the wonderful people who stopped by and proved my point.

Your argument here is ultimately a petty one at best, underlining an unimportant factor of a much larger argument. Think of it like this: -Christians are the restaurant owners/chefs -The name of their restaurant is "Best Burgers Ever" -Atheists are skeptical customers Atheist: "Yeah, I think I'll have the double cheeseburger to see if it really is the best tasting burger ever." Christian: "Well sir you need to understand the context of the recipe and the history of our establishment first." Atheist: "What? Look, I just want to try it for myself to see if it [i]really[/i] is the best ever." Christian: "No you don't understand the details and context of this burger. You can't judge it until you do." Atheist: "That doesn't make sense. I can make a judgement just by tasting-" Christian: "The lettuce was not grown in Mexico! It was actually harvested in California. The seasoning is a secret recipe developed by expert chefs-" Atheist: "Forget it, I'll just take my business somewhere else." Except in real life Christians claim to have the best burger without providing an actual burger. You're the cashier claiming that the context is important, when in actuality it is but a detail of the bigger claim that God is real. Atheists can misinterpret to their heart's content because the bible still makes the claim of an invisible man in the sky that created everything. TL;DR: Even if atheists misinterpret the bible, the burden of proof still lies with Christians to prove that their context/claim is legitimate.
