Robbie, do you practice being that dense and lacking reading comprehension or does it come natural to you? Please take time to read what was actually written. You wrote: "If I say that I am going to church today, you would say that I have made an unsupportable claim. Anything I say or do would be an unsupportable claim to you." Nobody ASKED you for evidence of going to church. My reply was to counter your claim that anything you said would be unsupportable. I merely explained to you under what circumstances you would be believed. But so far no one actually asked you for that evidence. It was only suggested what we might accept to believe you. > I do not care whether you believe I went to church or not. Oh child, you do in fact care. Otherwise you would not have bothered to comment unless you are trolling and are a disingenuous hypocrite. > This is true of almost everything about which you > demand evidence. I am not aware of any mainstream Christians who are > trying to communicate with me, just some atheists trying to run their > little game. There have been several people here that replied to you that have either posted they were Christian in the past or have directly told you they were not atheists. You seem to think that anyone that does not agree with your theological dribble is an atheist. I've got news for you. A good many knowledgeable Christians wholeheartedly disagree with your gibberish ideas and that includes scholars of your own Church. > Are you claiming to be a mainstream Christian? See right there you have shown that you have problems with reading comprehension. Just a few days ago I mentioned that I had a formal education in theology and in the biblical languages. How many non-Christians do you think would go after that type of education? What probably really confused you is that you seem to have a problem wit tenses. You used the wrong one for the verb "are". > > Robert B. Winn -- Later, Darrell Stec darstec@neo.rr.com Webpage Sorcery http://webpagesorcery.com We Put the Magic in Your Webpages Quote

Crying about "profanity" is the last resort of one who has no argument to begin with, and merely demonstrates the lack of intelligence on the part of the complainer. We can keep doing this until you repent of your style-over-substance fallacy. Which you won't do, since you haven't an argument to begin with. Crying about "profanity" is just a cover to keep people from learning that you have no argument, but it always backfires, since it SIGNALS that you have no argument.
