In your opinion, what are the most effective arguments that can be directed against Christianity? I'm interested in debunking it from a moral/philosophical angle, but I find the amount of plagiarism in the Bible to be a particularly strong argument. (The website "Exposing Christianity" summarizes this well.)
Anyone else here have any particular favorite arguments/sources to use?

Jesus as the messiah.
The Jews have absolutely blown Christianity the fuck out on this front.
You're a retard.
You're trying to attack Christianity from a position of Positivism when you don't even realise the principle of religion is that it does not concern itself with reason, it ultimately an action, a method of living, no different to how one eats and sleeps, no different to how a bird flaps its wings.
Maybe when you grow up you'll realise that, and maybe you should stop reading and watching retarded new age atheists who think every can be argued against from a standpoint of Scientific Realism.

From my point of view, it's as follows: Suppose it is true. Jesus really is the Messiah and the son of God, and now to achieve salvation, you need to have faith in him and do whatever in order to buy into his crucifixion.
Why then, was the Old Law given? The mainstream answer is that to show how people can't live by God's rules, but that necessitates God deliberately lying to who knows how many millions of people for roughly a thousand years about how to achieve salvation for your soul.
It's more of a general argument against monotheism, but my argument against monotheism is that philosophically, it focuses solely on one aspect of existence, despite that matters like good and true are always related to at least their opposite, evil and false etc. This duality is also the reason why God needs the devil to oppose him, because oddly enough, you can't really have any form of meaningful good without also affirming the evil inevitably tied to it. This is also why oddly, polytheism is much more consistent, since it doesn't assume that the Gods are perfectly good. Polytheism has much more an emphasis on variation and affirming all aspects of life, which is why it represents reality much better

The thing is not all monotheists believe god is omnibenevolent. Jews in particular don't.
To quote Isaiah
>I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things.
That said this just highlights another contradiction in Christian thought and yet another reason why their theology is embarrassingly bad.
