   Maybe it was a 'Christian' who said that. Some of them make up the most   
   outrageous falsehoods and get others to swallow it. Would you give up on   
   your religion if it could be shown that you are absolutely wrong in all   
   of the doctrines that you teach?

   So what?

   This means what? Human beings believe in all sorts of gods. The   
   doctrines of various religions are inconsistent with each other, yet   
   folks don't sit down and evaluate all of the religions before they   
   accept one.
