What would it take to make you a Christian? (non-theists)

The point was raised in HM Rob's thread, in a strange manner that didn't work so well. So here's a direct question for the atheists of Secular Sevens; what would it take for you to become a Christian?

      • I'm already a moderate Roman Catholic, but Catholicism is a sect of Christianity. Honestly, I was a die-hard Catholic until I went to college. While I'm religious, I'd love to see more of what those people preach. They preach happiness and love and equality for everyone. Yet, when the subject of gay marriage or anyone who is gay pops up, they treat them like shit or say that they don't deserve it. Again, I'm religious, I'm Catholic, but I would [u]love[/u] to see religious people stop acting like hypocrites. This is a broad generalization, but from my personal experience, I'd say it's justified to label Catholics (At least, from my parish) as hypocritical douchebags.

        • I need scientific research, tested hypotheses, and valid conclusions. I need evidence for The modern Gods the same way I need evidence to believe in Zeus, or Thor, or Horus.

        • Even if I saw God himself before me, I'd just chalk it up to the drugs and lack of sleep making me hallucinate.

        • Nothing less than 100% proof the Christian God exists. And it's funny reading all of these internet-tough guy responses that even if God was proven to exist they still wouldn't worship him. Would it be the "right" thing to do seeing as God tends to be a humongous wang? No, but if it was proven not worshipping him would land you an eternity in the kind of torment you literally cannot comprehend, and worshipping him would land you an eternity of happiness, you would have to actually be fundamentally retarded to not worship him. As incomprehensibly stupid as the incomprehensible pain you'd be feeling in hell.

          • My non-trolly answer? Jesus needs to fly down and deliver me to a life of Earthly wonders. That won't happen though, since magic doesn't exist.

            • It's almost scary how the whole "euphoric in intellectual enlightenment" joke stereotype applies to pretty much every atheist in this thread.

                      Insanity. Even if a prophet would show up, I would link it with the ancient alien theory.

                          For the actual BASE concepts to be rooted in science, then I might believe. This said, that's a reason why I find it a hell of a lot easier to find [url=http://www.dummies.com/how-to/content/wicca-theory.html]truth[/url] in Wicca than I do in most other religions. But as Daz said, even if the Judeo-Christian deity existed...I still wouldn't like him and I'd tell him to piss off.
