Atheists Unite

I don't think being able to quote chapter and verse makes you a Christian by any stretch.
I really am just annoyed at people who call themselves Christians with absolutely no knowledge of His teachings at all. My example of not knowing what happened on Good Friday and Easter Sunday wasn't plucked out of the air - it came from a vox-pop I saw a couple of years ago. Not 100% reliable, but I worked with many people like that.

I disagree that people who feel absolutely sure in their beliefs are silly. To each their own. Just don't dehumanise or kill people because of it.

I'm willing to agree to disagree on this. The silly part, not the killing part.

I don't think they're silly, I just think they've closed their minds to any other possibility.

Kind of a predictable way to live...much more exciting to keep one's eye out for the unicorns

And I don't think that knowing one's Bible makes one a Christian, either. I know some decidedly un-Christian-like individuals who can spin your head, quoting chapter and verse.
