If I may be allowed a flippant remark: Maybe 40 days and 40 nights on Venus, Mars or any other planet of your choice, without artificial means of survival, would give you a better understanding of the design inherent in our reality.

Hello I Am, I have read some of your remarks / posts, and I will say you have a very unique view of biblical subject matter ! Quite frankly, I am at a loss of how to respond to your question. Please forgive me if I am way off base, but it is hard to ascertain where your positions...

I was not aware that they dropped the word "Theory" from macro-evolutionary dogmatics.

Sir, your logic contained in your above statement, seems deficient........ We don't know whence we came, but we are sure it's not how you think we did !!! The statements or confessions of faith that I read on your referenced link, were , in my opinion, a faith of negativity...the sole...

[Note to self: While debating vhehn, try to remember Father Carriers' sermon on what tactics an atheist should use when debating and / or trying to convert a theist] If by "Garden of Eden story" you mean the "work of creation", all seven days, then YES, I do "actually" believe it. If you...

Thanks.....They all tend to get jumbled together....I thought we were talking about the one that states we were evolved from snakes.

Hmmm.....It seems you guys have your own dogmatics, priests, corporate organization, donation requests/ fund raising, and standard rules of conduct complete with moral judgements. http://www.infidels.org/library/modern/richard_carrier/howto.html Oh, I'm sorry....which religion were we...

What brings you to that conclusion ?

Good morning, I appreciate your remarks. While perusing the various trading related threads on this site, I noticed that a person kept using the term "hopium"........ I was immediately struck by the weight that the meaning of that "word" had. I would assume that the poster was saying that...

Historically speaking, your statement would be incorrect, as Islam was very close to sacking Europe.

I have often thought the most damaging place a seeker of Christ could be is in a church. I have not visited one in over 20 years. I would bet that your statement might have mirrored the thoughts of Caiaphas when pondering this Jesus fellow.

I would respectfully disagree. It is quite one matter to be familiar with ones own bias, it is another to be familiar, in depth, with the opposing point of view. Stu's reply made it evident that he was not familiar with mainstream christian theology, which is fine, but your failure to...

None taken The subject matter is difficult, for sure, if one is not familiar with the writings and arguments.

Maybe the 44 should talk to the 6 for advise

Well, as I am not familiar with the above referenced handles, I don't know if I should be insulted or impressed ! As far as being a "hippie", I would hope your trading instincts are better :)

Good morning.... These arguments and positions that I reference, are not "mine" in the sense that I have furthered a concept or work of another, I am simply stating the positions and thoughts, which I have read and agree with, of the great theologians and doctors of the Christian faith...

Hah! Actually I don't "thump" mine ! I open it very reverently :cool:

I was going to add a "prophecy" in my reply about your next response including a definition of the word "fact", but I was sure you would state someone edited it after the fact ! Since your question asked if MY belief in G-D was a fact, I would offer that my reasoning is firm. If I...

For me, my faith in the G-D who reveals Himself in the scriptures, and in the person of Jesus Christ, is a fact.

The "man" did not ask.....he was using another to ask..Ingersoll. If he or you, would ask regarding a specific prophecy, that YOU have desire to debate, I would address the task. I have no desire, nor time, to debate web sites, or quotes from people not present. I would assume that a...
